Re: Terrible performance Leicester (LE3)

When I used antivir compared to nod32 the filesystem scanning was noticebly better but the http scanning made it feel like dialup on web browsing, the difference was unreal, it also like kaspersky messes up speedtests so I went back to nod32. I assume in kaspersky as a temporary test you can disable just the http module and leave the rest of it turned on.

Re: Terrible performance Leicester (LE3)

Yes tried the VM one (McAfee I think) but it loaded so much other rubbish and slowed things down so much I binned it!

Im trying Eset now, can get 3 user 1 yr for £19.99, looking good so far.

No, they replaced Kaspersky with AVG in their security suite a while back, something like 6 months to a year ago. They're advising everyone with the Kaspersky based suite to uninstall it.

Nice drop in pings tere. Your graph is actually looking better than mine now. Not sure how/why they did a reseg or reconfig in the middle of the day but I see the big change in pings at ~9am which is about when they did one for me.

Re: Terrible performance Leicester (LE3)

that green dip is probably peering route changes to tbb so I would ignore it.

service right now feels completely transformed, ssh is great to use now.

AVG? It's not too bad but for the false positives it has a habit of, unless they've cured it.
