I love the variety of banners (sorry to be coming in late here--it was a busy weekend and I'm catching up). Even if it does end up costing too much and you have to put an end to it, it has been great to see them all. They are really well done. Thanks!

Yeah, that sounds exactly like what happened to Dad's computer. In the end he got some trojan thing as well. I know I've always had McAfee on this laptop and it's been brilliant so far at killing nasties, but doesn't seem to interfere with anything. I think dad's given up and installed McAfee as well. |
My Norton's doing just great actually. I don't think it depends on your OS, it depends on the computer you have because my parents computer is an HP with Windows XP, and Norton doesn't work on their computer anymore...actually they can't even go to any anti-virus scan site because my oldest brother did something stupid -_-. The only thing that still works is all of their ad-ware programs I installed. My computer is an Emachine, nothing at all wrong with it, and Norton, spyware doctor and ad-ware SE are its friends. When I had McAfee for about a month, ha, no, bleah. I hated it. -nods-
Anyway, I've seen the banners on the computers at the college, and I they're very nice, and I like them.  |

It can be a culmination of problems which can include the OS. The reason I mentioned the OS was because of Windows ME. That was probably the worst idea microsoft ever had and it seriously conflicted with anything and everything ever created. XP works great with the vast majority of stuff but there are problems here and there sometimes.
but Norton is just annoying anyway... had to format the parents' computer but then again they download stuff without checking. The universities around here have dropped norton and are getting great deals with mcafee or sophos (the best though more expensive).

I have AVG (FREE!!!!), Adaware, Spysweeper, and PS Guard. I like microtrend... when I can get it to download....
No Gamling banner. I shall now pout (where it will all on deaf ears...)

I think there's one of Gamling and Eomer... or at least I had one in the works if it never got finished. 
As I've said many times before, you want a particular one done, send on the pic.
do.
