• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

    Post 16 Update

    Post 17 Warning

Windows 7 SP 1

Panda 2011.. It works OK, but gets a bit overzealous sometimes! Russian programs for example are too often marked as a 'virus', giving problems with Sibwings aircraft and Rise of Flight.
 
While not trying to give too much info here, I NEVER install (let Microsoft install whatever they want) via automatic update. Most of it is bloatware that's really not needed. I'm not going into any detail on the subject, but if you really want to know, they usually don't tell you what update #2555307935144 is for anyway. Most of the stuff has always been 3rd party. I don't like that. I install what I want. To do this you have to spend time on M$ forums (technet) that involves a LOT of reading. Critical updates are really all that's needed. But that's my way of updating.
 
The only things I *don't* update are IE and that malware removal tool. Anything else has never had a negative effect on my system.

I really don't know where you guys get your troubles from...
