2010/7/9-23 [Computer/SW/Virus, Computer/SW/OS/Windows] UID:53879 Activity:nil | 7/9 I'm adding a larger and faster HD to my XP machine, and I want
to move my installation to the new drive, can anyone recommend
a tool that can do this? I'd perfer somethng inexpensive as
it's a one time thing.

seems to be the standard and I have used it successfully many

2007/6/3-6 [Computer/SW/OS/Windows, Computer/SW/Languages/Misc] UID:46844 Activity:moderate | 6/3 I find myself having to reinstall WinXP sp2 every 1 to 1.5 year
due to sluggishness and problems (yes I've tried every single
trick that you can Google for). I'm at a point where I think I
should just install a fresh image and save the image so that I
can just restore it. What's a good FREE *Windows* based software
that can save and restore an entire disk image? Thanks.

2007/4/11-15 [Computer/SW/Virus] UID:46263 Activity:nil | 4/11 Is secure pop3 access working? Norton anti-spam does not work with
imap accounts.
\_ Norton's products are junk. Why are you using anything from
Norton? They haven't made good software since Peter Norton left
20+ years ago.

2006/2/2-4 [Computer/SW/Virus] UID:41665 Activity:nil | 2/2 I use Thunderbird, with gigabytes worth of emails stored locally in
unix mbox formats. inevitably, some of these locally stored emails
contains virus/worms. They are relatively harmless, being encoded
in b64 or what not, but I would like to get rid of them. Is there
any anti-virus software that actually parse the mbox file
and remove the virus attachments, instead of dump my entire INBOX

2006/1/3-5 [Computer/SW/OS/Windows] UID:41214 Activity:nil | 1/3 Regarding the WMF vulnerability, is it true that if you're using
Firefox 1.5, you'll always be prompted when there's a WMF image on a
web page? I know those using IE are SOL unless they install the 0-day
patch from Ilfak Guilfanov mentioned here:

2005/6/18-20 [Computer/SW/Virus] UID:38187 Activity:nil | 6/18 Thanks to whoever recommended ClamWin as a windows virus checker.
It's not always on guard (like Norton or whatever) but it's
pretty good. It's certainly thorough. It found viruses in old mail
backups from soda. First time I've ever had a virus checker find
those. :P
\_ my problem with ClamWin was that if they found ONE virus in

2005/6/11-13 [Computer/SW/Virus] UID:38087 Activity:kinda low | 6/10 If I buy "Norton Internet Security 2005", is it possible (easy) to
install "Norton Antivirus 2005" ONLY, and not install any of the
other applications included with "Norton Internet Security 2005"?
\_ AFAIK, no.
\_ If you tell me what you are trying to accomplish, I will gladly
give you a list of compelling reasons to not bother with Norton

2005/6/1-3 [Computer/SW/Virus] UID:37929 Activity:nil | 6/1 Does anyone know, if I get one license of Norton Utilities for Windows,
can I use the one disc to fix problems on multiple workstations? Or
do I need to buy multiple licenses? -sax
\_ Looks like they stopped selling Norton Utilities separately a while
ago and it only available in "suite" packages like Norton
SystemWorks. I believe the suite packages all require activation

2005/4/9-10 [Computer/HW/Laptop, Computer/SW/Virus] UID:37130 Activity:high | 4/8 To save power I set my laptop to shut down HD after 1 min of
inactivity. However, my laptop always does something to the HD
and I know this because it keeps clicking and clicking. I've turned
off Norton Realtime Anti-Virus thing, Firefox/IE, MS Word, and
pretty much everything I can think of, but it just never turns off.
What could be causing this? BTW I have 1.5G of RAM and XP and
