Security software will get medieval on you

Kasperskydetail

This Duffy & Shanley ad for computer security firm Kaspersky Lab promises "a whole new level of security unlike anything you've known before. A system so intelligent it actually knows what's good, what's bad and what to keep a close watch on." Oh. My. God. HAL 9000's moving in to police the office hardware! I, for one, will be watching my own computer habits more closely. No more lurking during lunch hours. (I know what you're saying about me on your "walls," by the way!). So long, naked celebrities. Farewell, firearms forums. Bye-bye, bit torrents. Delete browsing history, clear cache, trash cookies, drown hard drive in battery acid. There, now I feel safe.

The one bad thing about my firewall and antivirus doing all the thinking for me is that it's a bit of a resource hog. My computer slows to a crawl when it dedicates all the CPU cycles to finding Sarah Connor.

Check it out, Marc. KISS and KAV are serious warriors, and the best part is that they AREN'T system suckers. http://anti-virus-software-review.toptenreviews.com/kaspersky-review.html
