I hate Resource hogs, with the expansion of ram availability there's always a program that pushes you to NEED more even though you JUST install that new stick!

Thats the main reason i broke away from the their residential products and went with their Corporate Products, The CORP Versions aren't resource hogs, the code is much better written and Optimised.
However Internet Secrity / Firewall arent that good, I dont like " Software for Noobs " lol.
