Norton 360 Version 2.0

I am thinking of running a contest where the price is a free genuine copy of Norton 360 version 2. I’m not sure how am I suppose to run this competition, it would be great to see something for a change instead of boring post.

How about the person that blogs in their blog on why he/she should win a copy of Norton 360 from GeckoandFly? Suggestion?

Norton 360 Version 2.0

Norton 360 version 2.0 is out now, and I’ve downloaded the trialware did some performance test on two of my comp and surprisingly it is overwhelming, the new version is lighter, faster.

According yo Norton, it uses 73% less memory compare to version 1.0, it boost up any applications by 6% faster, and the user interface response is 92% faster. In short, Norton 360 is a great product and does exactly what its name says in covering the security of your computer. It’s nice to have a product that’s somewhat user friendly and efficient. Speaking of user interface, I would say McAfee has a very user unfriendly interface.

Some of the new features in Norton 360 version 2.0 are:

Network Monitoring, which checks the status of wireless security, maps connected devices, alerts users when they are connected to an unsecure network, and provides advice to help manage network security settings. Norton 360’s Smart Background Scheduler has been enhanced with the ability to prevent tasks from initiating automatically while in battery power mode and also throttles bandwidth for online backups to minimize impact on performance. Norton 360 users have the option to manually scan individual files and folders and to shutdown their computer upon completion of a task.

Norton 360’s anti-phishing and Web authentication functionality has been extended to Firefox. Enhancements have also been made to the Norton toolbar, allowing it to be resized or hidden. Source: WWPI.com

Given today’s threat landscape, computer users need to gravitate towards all-in-one solutions like Norton 360 to address their essential security needs, the Norton 360 Version 2.0 cost around 80 dollars, a reasonable price for a trouble free PC.

p.s. Avoid downloading a copy of Norton 360 version 2 from any Bittorrent site for the time being, not only it is a version 1.0 disguise as version 2, but it comes with a virus.

ReadyBoost Technology in Windows XP SP3, Increase Memory

ReadyBoost Technology in Windows XP SP3

Want to speed up your computer without upgrading your RAM? Microsoft ReadyBoost technology in Windows Vista has the ability to boost your system by utilizing any type of flash memory from SD card to USB Thumbdrive. I was hoping that Windows XP service Pack 3 comes with ReadyBoost technology but I doubt that is going to happen.

ReadyBoost is a great technology when you’re low on RAM, especially when you’re into graphics, multimedia and gaming, it is not as responsive as a RAM but good enough to increase responsiveness and performance to a certain level.

Fear not, eBoostr is here to save the day. eBoostr offers such an easy and relatively cheap solution to the problem of insufficient RAM, that you will have absolutely no need to buy additional memory. All you need to boost your computer performance: is plug in a flash drive, choose it as a device to speed up your computer and set the amount of the memory space to be used.

Highlights

  • Vista’s ReadyBoost benefits on your Windows XP® machine;
  • Smart caches frequently used applications and files for maximum performance speed up;
  • Supports both USB and non-USB removable media devices, as well as additional hard disks;
  • Allows up to 4 devices for simultaneous smart caching;
  • Cache file size of up to 4GB on each device;
  • Compatible with all ReadyBoost® ready devices.

eBoosts 1.1 is such a great application, for a person that is into graphic designing and still stuck in Windows XP, I would say eBoost 1.1 is a good investment, it is just 29 dollars. Don’t go on google for Cracks, Serial or Keygen, it is not worth it, support the author.

Another option besides eBoostr is to reconfigure your Windows Pagefile system, right click on ‘my computer’ properties and the proceed to change your default Pagefile system drive from C: to the one assigned by Windows for your computer, it can be E: or F: depending on the numbers of storage drives you installed in your system.
