All of Welch's protégés have a tough time. He's famous for being a worthless human being

FTFY

Here you go, another possible solution:

And Steve Bennett is no slouch. He started at GE as a protege of Jack Welch, and then was at the helm of Intuit for five years. Either he couldn't get rid of the entrenched problems at the company, or the board undercut him.

I would love one of those!

It's been a long time since I've dealt with the Mac version, so I'm not sure what the fix is for this one. I'd say ping support. If you can't get a good answer let me know, as I know the PM for the Mac product and I can ask him to get an answer if support flakes out.

Put Tomato on it, and then crank up the power until you drown out your neighbors. At least that is what I do because I live in an apartment and can see 30+ wireless networks from my unit.

So you're the reason I can't get online.

There will be no flashing another firmware.

Thanks for the suggestions so far.

Only if you live next to me Actually the reason I started doing it was because someone else was drowning out my signal. I got a signal strength app on my phone and my own router wasn't the strongest signal in my own apartment.

You know, they have these things called "channels" that allow you to reside on another frequency to prevent this kind of crosstalk. I recommend channel 13.

See, this is what happens when you got non-techs on a tech board. N00b!

Trust me, with 30+ access points, all the channels were occupied multiple times.

OK I was only 3 weeks off.. yeah - that was the one. and Frankly the reason why I really like Webroot today (that was before you joined them - now I like them doubly)

I checked with Richard and he says sorry for dropping the ball on getting you the shirts. If you can PM or email me ([email protected]) your size and address he'll get them out to you. If there's anyone else waiting on theirs just have them contact me too.

Glad you like us and hopefully I won't spoil that

Let me find out what happened - which SpiceCorps was it?

Omaha, Ne on or about Dec 6.

Was it this one? http://community.spiceworks.com/meeting/show/759
I'll check with Richard and see what happened.

@Nic I may have to bring this up at the Cincinnati Spicecorp meeting next week.

Nice - let me know if you want any swag or giveaways. Richard does a lot of SpiceCorps sponsorship so I can ping him as well.

It's funny you should mention swag. Our Sp***corp had a Webroot call back in Dec. I don't recall the name of the sales guy but he took everyone's address and mentioned they were going to mail out shirts. To the best of my knowledge no one ever got one.

It was @ajstringham who was gonna go with business for his friends and family. I think so far he is just trialing it on his own.

I know that as my clients all come up for renewal on their Vipre agreements, I will be giving Webroot heavy consideration. They presented their case quite well at a SpiceCorp meetup last fall.

Cool - let me know if you need anything as you're evaluating it.

Well I've been running this for a few days now, and it's been blocking stuff I've thrown at it. I'll have to admit though that the scans are scary fast. But it's been rather un-obtrusive and not chatty on the home version service. I like that.

Glad to hear you are liking it. The estimate about 3MB a day for sending up the MD5 hashes and the return communication, so it doesn't eat up that much bandwidth.

@JaredBusch said:

ever since @ajstringham mentioned setting up a business version to use for all his family and such, I've been thinking about doing that myself.
edit: or was it @aaron-studer that said that?

@Nic Cool how you guys do both web/content as well as antivirus in the same service. For traveling laptop users that roam home, and outside the corporate firewall the "let my 5 yr old play games on it at home" seems to be a solid attack vector that this can stop.

They're separate services. You might be able to get a discount for using both, not sure how that works.

I was assuming wireless, which would get lesser throughput. If on a wired LAN then I agree that would be faster. If it is a USB 3.0 drive how much difference would that make?
