    I have to concur, in the last 5 years I have only had 2 virus alerts on my PC, and both times dealt with, I put this down to good security, including not opening 'dodgy' emails and not visiting 'dodgy' web sites

    Hi All, I also have used WLOC since day one of Visya.  I do my backups to DVD.  Don;t find it a hassle at all.  WLOC does give you a choice of what info you wish to save.  It really does sget down to what you value.

    Hello Neil, After.  Then install the Vista updater.  Otherwise you will get permissions problems which you will have to alter in the registry editor.  If after installing Norton, you suddenly find one day your AV stuff is turned of and you cannot turn it back on, this will be the case also, post back and I'll try and help ...
