I have been running Windows One Care happily for a long time, but now i have windows Vista 64, and One Care doesn’t support it. Norton came with the computer, and it’s killing me. I cant stand it. It’s the most annoying program ever! Whenever I try to print, it says “NORTON HAS PREVENTED A ATTACK ON YOUR COMPUTER!” and tells me how it expertly blocked a connection to a computer on my network (aka the printer)… It even does this when the firewall and auto protect are disabled!!! I dont even want to deal with Norton, i had it a long time ago, before One Care. It sucked then and it still does.

What are my alternatives? Mcafee is a little better imo, but still annoying. I loved One Care. it never complained or anything…

thanks guys
