Been using it for a while. Hadn't realised it had been called "morro" before release though.
It's fine, light, free and includes good anti-spyware (aka Defender).

Good Good well i will give it a bash and see how it goes,was using avira but it mucks up speedtests and have to keep turning it off when i mwant to do a speed test,morro though does not affect speed tests so thats a positive for a start too as it became just to annoying for me
Edit.. i suppose the new U.A.C. i think its called is a good way to go aswell,bit like linux asking for a password before changing certain things so thats a bit more security too i think,till it gets cracked

Found that it basically makes my wife's XP laptop unusable.
Also the minute you decide to turn off any part of it because its killing performance (like the file access scanner) it just sits and complains all the time,

Have been using from the beginning and not a problem, don't even know it's there until it finds something it doesn't like and then it gets rid of it and tells you about it, highly recommended.

Is this "MORRO" (as in "toMORROw") the same as the thing in Windows 7 which asks for an administrators password if you want to install a program?
The family don't like it - but it's an absolute essential.
I'm surprised M$ only just got round to it.
Been in Linux for many years.
