Security Software That You Haven’t Tried.
Hal9000, my surly PC, has recently been retired through reason of general malfunction. It had so many viruses and trojan horses that it practically ceased to be. Once, everything was solved by using the time machine feature and reverting the hard drive back to an earlier date. It seemed genius at the time, until exactly a year and a half later when it approached the period in time in its timeline where the problem happened. That is the best way I can describe it. I tried to do the same thing all over again, and it only lasted a short while.
Since, I went back to a Mac. No matter what software I downloaded, I could never get the PC to work right again. There is one more Antivirus Software that I hadn’t tried and that is VIPRE. PC Magazine gave it 4 stars, as it doesn’t bog down your system, and delivers on its promise as both an antivirus AND an antispyware software combined.
Right now, there is a 15 day free trial to test it out. If it revives Hal9000 back from the computer graveyard, it certainly will change the game here. I will still remain loyal to my newer Mac, but it will be like sitting on the floor with a box of old photos. There are still some wonderful things on the old clunker that I would like to see again, and to transfer to safety. Who knows, the PC could prove to be earning its keep again. I’ll report back any interesting results.
