I don't know if I would short it, but I'll pass along the following: I just finished evaluating their Virus Clinic software, and ended up removing it from my system. It was too intrusive, always scanning files in the background with no way to turn off the scanning without disabling the virus checking. This interfered with various activities on my system such as MP3 playback and sound recording, which are time critical, and even caused my mouse to become very erratic. While Virus Clinic seems to be a comprehensive piece of software, because of this design error I can't use it. I will be looking at Norton Antivirus next. P.
