Laptop medical check-up @ 3:20 PM

I called in sick today. And make use of this chance to do a health check-up for my laptop, my oldie dearie laptop. And to my horror there are like around 300 threats found after 1hr+ scanning (and not yet stop at the moment of blogging).

Anyway I found Norton Antivirus is horrible for its hogging of resources and constantly making things slower. Hence got it removed and install AVG free edition. It works pretty well, lightweight and so far has helped me detected the above-mentioned threats.

Also install Comodo firewall. Used to have ZoneAlarm Free Edition, which has worked pretty well till recently when it seems to be hogging on resource.

Let's hope my laptop will recover soon...
