OT: Google Maps & Security software

[petek]

Hi

Apologies for this, but can anyone recommend a Group where I can ask a question about a PC problem? I'm having problems accessing Google Maps and I think it has something to do with the security software that I'm using (Virgin, PC Guard).

Thanks PeteK

Dump the VM PC guard ie they're a ISP not a software copany,install ZoneAlarm at least it works better.

Agree with the others, PC Guard is as much use as a chocolate teapot, but without the melted chocolate...

I have links to several free AV programs, as well as scanners, older versions of ZoneAlarm without as much bloat etc on my site (mainly on the second link down from the main page):

PS: I use Avast personally, Avira would be a good choice for someone who wants superb protection to the point of paranoia, and AVG would be somewhere below these.

Based on recent experience of PC guard, dump it and install something that works (e.g. AVG).

Who are you calling paranoid?

There's a dedicated support newsgroup (virginmedia.support.pcguard) which they do monitor (even if they can't necessarily sort out problems with pcguard)
