What do other poeple think.well there are a few things that I have to ttally disagree with in that pack,Norton for one. Its beep. there are much better auntivirus programs that are free on the market than Norton, Same with the spyware dr. Hence AVG Screensavers. the one you have in your windos is just a good, and you do not need to download it. toolbar for IE. more and more people are removing IE for Firfox. another waist of diskspace. As for slowing your system down? on some older PC it will slow you down. Also if your on a slower conection as some still have. your skype and real payler will not load fully or buffer.

CyberWizard 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2009 Yeah there are few things that in my opinion are not needed. For example the Spyware Doctor, Chrome Browser (which is just marketing game of Google) and Real Player. Lets get back to Chrome Browser. On this browser is spent a lot of time and it is total missed Google project. First they add it to the index page of Google. It was downloaed for millions times, but not used. Why? Than, they add link on youtube to advert it - miss too... And so on... i can't explain now for Real Player and Spyware Doctor, simply i don't like it.

Tramposch 1 Report post Posted January 21, 2009 There is no problem with Google Chrome. I don't use it anymore, but when I did I loved it. It was fast and reliable. Pages never rendered funky in any of my experiences. The fact that it is another one of Google's "forever in beta" projects, is kind of annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
