My Space

 I have suddenly become a self proclaimed expert reviewer of antiviruses, after my licence for Kaspersky expired. Since yesterday, all I have been doing is downloading and installing all free editions. I have also found my way around getting  cracks for a few of them, but soon realized that all the actiation codes were already taken up by people just like me. I turned to a site that I knew provided serial keygens, but saw that it had been taken out of the web, as if it never existed at all. Hence I was in the dilemma of not getting updates which I had grown so used to over the last two years, during my stint with Kaspersky.  My first choice of trying a free version was the age old AVG. It did not fail to impress me. It had gone through a complete makeover, since I had last seen it in the 90's. Then I turned to PANDA. Something I had heard from my friend.

I flicked the ubuntu 9.04 "jaunty jakalope" into the drive and installed it within windows. That was just the start of things.

It has a few problems, like its unable to play dvds without being programmed manually. Programming ubuntu just involves running a unix scrip..and you are done. I am now running my comp on ubuntu 24X7. I simply love it. I did some pending research in these days, to choose the distro i may use in the near future. Thus, I downloaded Debian 5.0.2,"Lenny", which I shall use later...
