The fight between Safer and Symantec is over for me. I trusted Safer for many years. 1.5 unleashed it's fury and put all the baddies on my main drive. I haven't had a crash in years because of my backup system but SSD unleashed it's full fury yesterday and destroyed both my main and my backup.
It finally turned off Norton and put all the wares it suppose to protect from on to my disc. Norton fought the worms, Zone Alarn was working all the time and SpySweeper agreed somehow with SSD and I lost everything.
I just can not believe anyone would be that irresponsible without warning it's users.
When I called service, the internal buzzer kept beeping shortly after boot with a blank screen, the tech said he been working for 7 years as a CSR and never heard the buzzer with a constant beep, beep, beep.
SSD must have taken out bios and everything else connected to it. CSR said, minimum, power supply, motherboard plus anything that was connected to it at the time, drive, ram, etc, you get the picture, congratulations. From friend to enemy in one easy step.
I trusted Safer-Networking so much that I hooked up my backup drive, updated all the wares with Spybot last, it ended it's program and right from Safer Networking put every bug on my computer it was supposed to protect it from.
It's really not the equipment I will have to replace but the creative stuff I lost.
Shame.
