Antivirus: it's as bad as malware itself
,----[ Quote ]
| Unfortunately, I've never had the heart to tell Dell this, because
| allowing every vendor and their dog to stack trial software onto new
| systems no doubt helps put some money in Dell's pocket to allow them
| to provide the aspect of Dells that I really love - the low, low
| price.
|
| So it was with some trepidation that I booted my new notebook for the
| first time. Entering Windows XP, I was greeted with a sight that
| looked astoundingly like when Homer Simpson makes a web page, and
| just stacks it with blink tags and animated gifs.
