Re: Your thoughts about Azureus please

ClassOfAllMyLove -

AV - Of course the choice is yours, but did you know you can keep the AV installed and just do a scan every 4 months? To keep it from sucking resources, you need to go into the options and disable "Auto-protect" or whatever it may be called in the software you use. Of course you'll no longer be protected (you aren't now anyway), but it'll keep you from having to install/uninstall every four months. Plus, it gives you the added convenience of being able to specifically scan a particular file/directory at any time.

Ctrl-Alt-Delete thing with AZ - We're refering to the Processes tab (CPU column). The "javaw" is the one that "hogs" resources for the reason Five's GF gave in one of the prior posts.

I still haven't used AZ extensively because I don't download a whole lot, but from what I've seen, it looks like it's working out ok for me and I think I'll stick with it until it lets me down.

Thanks again for everyone's replies.
