I'm doing this Xpert segment on air, so during my shift there will be a capsule about me talking about the latest gadgets and all in town - so yea... i thought of sharing it here with you guys. It's actually on Xfresh.com but here's a copy for your viewing pleasure! :-)

Lovin' your pictures that you store on your computer after a nice holiday to Pulau Langkawi, or even your very own birthday party photos for your 21st birthday (it's a must to remember), you may even transfer songs from your friends and put it on your iTunes playlist! All these can disappear all at once and render your computer filled with virus that will / can infect others as well.

Without proper protection against viruses, your computer is vulnerable to the myriad of viruses on the internet and those transferred through file sharing and so forth. There was once that i was like "Nahh..i don't transfer files from friends, i don't download songs or even movies! So i have nothing to worry about". Yeah right... well as long as i'm online on the internet i'm vulnerable to all these random attacks or even from your "friend" that you're chatting with online. Well is there a solution?

Norton Internet Security 2009 is OUT! Recently released in mid October 2008 and is currently the most talked about Antivirus / Internet Security program. It is claimed to be the world''s fastest and lightest security product!

I've tried it myself on my Dell 1525 Notebook - Although i'm running on Windows Vista Premium with a 3Gb DDR-II Ram (yes Vista takes up alot of memory), but Norton Internet Security still runs smoothly and fast! It has solved all of my problems with viruses, tracking cookies and trojans. Tracing them before anything could have happened to my notebook!

Norton Internet Security (NIS 2009), the complete protection for you to go online with and surf safely! It's installation time is as fast as in 60 seconds.The community intelligence-driven Norton Insight technology that can be found in this version of NIS 2009 removes the need to scan common files, thus greatly reducing the number of files that have to be scanned regularly. Not forgetting Pulse Updates are every 5 to 15 minutes deliver the latest protection updates faster than any other internet security programs.This is what i call "Comprehensive Protection". 

What's new in NIS 2009? - Well one of the main things that you can see after installing this program is that the user interface has been greatly improved, and even comes in with a CPU usage meter!
