I wonder why.

I'm still getting notices from my Kaspersky security that the worm I mentioned earlier is trying to penetrate my ass. Wonder why it keeps coming back. I don't think it occurs while I'm at any particular site.

My 30-day Kaspersky trial is about 3 or 4 days from expiring. What is THE best security software, taking into consideration it's security effectiveness and it's lack of drain on my net speed connection? Is there a way to renew my Kaspersky free of charge? How do they know it's me if I delete cookies? My 'IP address'? or whatever it's called. Told you I'm an idiot. 

Man, I wonder why I keep getting these messages now?

Do these things usually come from websites I'm currently at? If you close Internet Explorer windows, can you still be attacked? Can the stuff above only come from places we've both been, including email, etc? I mean, how do they find my presence, at least the most stealthy ways?

How might it affect my current 30-day trial?

Is it worth my time to uninstal Kaspersky and install NOD32 trial version? I've had Kaspersky for about 1.5 weeks I believe. The trial period is 30 days. If I uninstalled it, how would this affect my 30-day trial?

Here's the NOD32 free trial link:

Does NOD32 cover all my security needs, e.g., spyware, trojan, firewall???

Thanks!

I've has Kaspersky for about a week and havent received any 'attack reports' until a little after my post above. Here's what it says:

??? Related?  Told you I'm cpu illiterate. 

Thanks Bryan, I'll check the link.

I probably shouldnt try this but...I turned off Kaspersky Security just tot see how much faster my connection speed would be. It shot up to 9,800 Kbps vs 4,700! I've never come close to that number before. That's what I pay my cable co. for, 10,000 Kbps, but I've never gotten close to it until I tried that. Is that normal?

Are you using Vista or XP??? and where do you live, like what state and do you live in town or in the country those have alot of factors when it comes with speed, I can get around 20mb with my provider with all my wireless laptops so its not the wireless thats the issue its either your OS, your router, wireing, and even settings.

Windows XP. I'm in a suburb in Alabama. County population is about 100,000. Well, when I dropped the wireless connection and went w/ the ethernet, my connection speed definitely improved. My speed seems erratic. Also, it seems the longer I'm online the slower it gets. After a few hours I'll just restart my computer and that usually helps.

Hello! I'm brain-dead and need some help. I use Charter Communications. I'm paying for a 10 Mbps service and here's my test results:

Is it normal to have such a discrepancy (10,000 Mbps vs 4,724 Mbps <accurately converted?)? I'm using a laptop. Yesterday I was testing at about half this speed and noticed my wireless connection said something like, 54.0 Mbps when I moved my cursor over the icon. I checked out an ethernet connection and it said 100 Mpbs, so I plugged it into my laptop. Much better speed but I'm not real fond of having to 'wire it up'.

I'm also having a problem deleting programs. I get an error message on about 1/2 the stuff I try to delete. Also, I can NOT go to a freaking .pdf site. It will freeze my browser. GRRRR!!! I've tried deleting Acrobat/Adobe Reader and it will not let me. I've tried download and installing, replacing the old Reader, it will not let me.

Sorry if this is info overkill. If you can help w/ my connection speed that'd be great!
