AVG

1. Finally, after much procrastination, I installed AVG. The reason why I delayed it was because TrendMicro couldn't detect anything much, and I doubted if AVG would be better. (of course, another big reason for this delay is my laziness :">)

Turns out, AVG detected a whopping 5 threats that TrendMicro couldn't find @___@ One of the threats was named Fake_AntiSpyware =)) Erm, the name is hilarious in a way. And what's more hilarious is that even with this name, TrendMicro couldn't see it as a threat.
Finally, lousy as it is, it even required a password to uninstall the software =)) And I had to google for the default password in order to remove it.

I wonder how they could persuade NUS to pre-install their software in our laptops. Must be a damn good salesman. I'd love to talk to him. Maybe he would be able to convince me to go back to TrendMicro? Oh, nothing is impossible...

PS: anw, thanks for the recommendation... :)

Hello Anonymous. I think you forgot to sign off with your name. Do you mind telling me who you are? It's okay if your name is Anonymous, though.
