Bollocks - look at the CPU usage graph even THEY use - 0.7% CPU usage is the worst case woop de doo 0.7% ain't gonna impact anything and that's their advertising Even 40Mb RAM usage from bloat norton when yhou have 1 or 2 gig isn't that much As long as the AV doesn't kick off a full system scan in the middle of a game there should be no issues. Normally you control stuff like that. Are you being paid to promote them mex? Can you tell I think the whole AV industry is a crock of shit, the cyber equivalent of lucky charms?

Worst case scenario; 0.5% differance in cpu usage could mean the differance between life and DEATH!!!!! It's milliseconds wot count, especially when you're gaming after a few tokes and beers! I'm using trial version Eset Nod 32 at the moment, when that runs out I'm gonna use the 100 day trial of Kaspersky, followed by the trial of whatever by which time I'll have probably wiped and reinstalled windows and be ready to use the nod 32 trial again. Also got a free year of PC Tools internet security on a disk somewhere. Haven't paid for antivirus ever and hopefully never will
