I may be lucky, but never in my life have I had my AV program interfere with
my Games.

I don't know, unless you have some really sensitive, important stuff on
your
rig, using an AV program does more harm than good. Same goes with
software
firewall programs.

I mean, the first thing to do if you're running an AV program in the
background and you have problems with some software (a game or otherwise),
the first thing to do is turn off the AV program and see if the problem
persists. More often than not the problem will cease to exist, because
you
got rid of the problem when you disabled the AV program.

Simply practicing smart (almost common-sense) email and internet usage
will
keep you out of danger.

I think that in all my times of computing-- since 1986-- I had to call
technical support once, dealing with my router (and not counting cable
internet stuff). And during that time also I've had one virus. I'll take
my chances, save some money, and rid myself of the headache and stay away
from AV programs and firewalls (software).

I have not had to disable my antivirus program in the last two years. A
piece of software that requires you to disable antivirus is absolutely
absurd and unacceptable in 2006.
