RE: filmscanners: Anyone having problems with Scan@leben?

I use McAfee on my home machine.  It's the same deal, $40 a year and daily 
updates.  I haven't noticed any impact on my system's performance and it's 
saved my bacon a number of times.

Norton is (was) very HEAVY on my system.  It would constantly crash and burn 
regularly and slow down my system to the point it was unusable.  I believe I 
tried it when they came out with 6.0 (?) version 1 1/2 years ago I think.  
Maybe they got the kinks worked out of it but it left such a bad taste in my 
mouth I swore I would never try it again.  Should I?
