Hey guys, thanks for the input and I'll give an update since I made this post last August.

I have been using the Mc suite since Sept. as it is free with comcast.

And regardless of my AV and firewall I have and use CCleaner, AdAware, Spybot S&D and Spybotblaster plus installing the MS MVP and Spybot host file blockers.

It is no joke that the suite is a resource hog.

On startup I have to wait two or three minutes while it downloads and installs updates and if my browsing slows to a crawl I know it is updating.

While typing this reply I have 149.82 Mb Ram available out of 512 on a CeleronD X86 mobo.

I like a couple features it has like the cert trace and the maintainence cleaner which shreds unwanted stuff after removal.

Sometimes I run an online scan just to see if it is doing OK.

I just use it and don't recommend it.

Besides if I get in trouble I know where to ask for help. :D
