    "Total Waste of Time and Money"

    June 14, 2012  |   By slytheringirl

    Pros

    Pros? What pros?

    Cons

    Slow to install, slow to update, and TOTAL RESOURCE HOG!!!!!!!!!

    Summary

    Don't even bother with this one. It took FOREVER to install and when it finally did it took even longer to update. Also it runs not 1, not 2, but THREE instances of the same .exe file which eats up your system's Virtual Memory and even if you hit exit on the system tray, they will STILL be running and you can not kill them with Task Manager. I'm going back to AVG.
