So long as you UNINSTALL the program correctly there should be no issues. You should do this from your add remove programs icon in your control panel in windows. I would recommend afterwards to restart your computer before trying to install the next one.

If the normal uninstall process fails or doesn't uninstall everything, try the Norton Removal Tool.

PS: I never used it, as I never had a Norton product on any of my computers.

if you live in the US and have a computer, tablet or smartphone connected to the internet, then this may be the most important news you read all year.

Earlier this month we saw thousands of people across the US get their hands on the the latest Online ID protection from SaferWeb, after yet another increase in identity theft and web-history monitoring.

We have however been advised that because of its unexpected popularity, availability is very limited and is now on a first come first serve basis.

Experts Are Now Calling SaferWeb, “A Game Changer For Internet Users”

As part of the special promotion due to end June 25, 2016, a group of Engineers teamed up with innovative new software provider SaferWeb, to provide the latest ID Protection thats just gone viral.

If you have a desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone connected to the internet, your activities could be monitored and private information collected when you’re Internet shopping or banking. Even just browsing online is a risk in 2016.

SaferWeb had a primary objective to eliminate this by boosting security and ensure eavesdroppers cannot make sense of your encrypted communications.

Technical Lead John McBride, from SaferWeb explains; Our main objective for creating the app was pretty simple. We wanted to help users protect their Identity & Internet Connection to eliminate the risk of any online, banking or personal information being stolen, monitored or hacked”

The company SaferWeb seemed to deliver on this objective perfectly. Using their technology will give a private tunnel between you and the internet that’s invisible to hackers or any malware, letting you browse the Internet anonymously and securely. Literally anyone can use it and it only takes 5 minutes to set up.

It sounds like an anonymous proxy, unless they have something more.

A friend just got an alienware pc with a Intel 7 and a ton of ram and windows 10 for a gaming machine.

Any tips for a good website with directions  for tuning up the OS for gaming?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Russo and E113 -

We worked our way through both sites and implemented the suggestions.

His system performs like greased lightning no matter the task.


Many thanks for the great suggestions!
