I have uninstalled and reinstalled at least three times but it works once and then the next time it gets stuck and the tracker which loads on install disappears. I think I will be looking for a new virus scan. This is way too many times that I have to reinstall. If a virus ware won't scan and doesn't load right, what good is it
@krishna55 This needs your help Users uninstalled as per correct way but scan locks up.

Well, finally an answer. I hope it gets fixed soon. This is what we pay for.
so when are they going to fix it. What's the use of having a virus scan if you can't scan. So unreliable.
