:realmad:

has anybody encountered the problem that symantec antivirus ver9 slows down your windows 98 Machine ?

we replaced it with 9 after running 8.1 without problems and it just hogs system performance by atleast 70% .

what is up with that ??

Well, I'd say:

1. SAV9 is newer - so expects more resources to be available.

2. Its recommended for win2k/XP machines, better don't use it for the 9x series.

@moderators-

Maybe a change of topic title is appropriate?

"symantec Virus 9 and win98" could be changed to "symantec Anti-Virus 9 and win98". Because a virus is not the same as Anti-Virus, LOL.
