    Hey, I did mention about this some time back here but back then no one replied to my post. I guess they missed it..hehehe.

    Gizmo's Freeware Security Wizard is indeed a very useful online service. If you are unsure of what free security apps are suitable for you (and your PC), then this is one of the best place to go to seek 'advice'...apart from this forum of course.
    They call me the mysterious one...
    my motto is...when it's hot, chill baby

    The wizard is too short. And I don't want to turn on User Account Control. Never.

    My setup is similar to yours Shan except for the fact I'm running Avira...and I don't use Google Preview...I can run a PC without AV with no problems last time but experience tells me that it doesn't hurt to have one that's resource-friendly and effective. And now that I'm downloading stuffs from 'unknown' places, I need to be slightly more careful...
