I've been looking to replace Norton Anti-Virus 2002 as some of you have
suggested. And while searching, I get popups (i.e. The Shield AV). I've
use Another IE Popup Killer v2 by fadsoft for years which use to kill
them all. Are popups smarter now days? Is there a better PU killer? And
is The Shield AV any good since they try so hard to get my attention???
