What is a good paint program to use with a Wacom tablet?
Aside from the obvious biggies like Adobe's Photoshop and Illustrator, anything that lets you draw a line! But to get the full use of the pressure-sensitivity (one of the big advantages over a mouse), try art programs advanced enough to allow variation in line quality and color blending. I'm experimenting with ArtRage right now, which is fun to play with. There are plenty of other programs out there, some free and some which have free trials.
Is windows antivirus better than Norton?
Absolutely. If you go to download.com you will see users like you and me voting for the best antivirus based on the amount of definitions that can detect, budget, and friendly environment. The one that I recommend is Antivir which is on place #2 from my opinion due to being free. 1# I would say is Avast! Norton is somewhere at # 22 if not lower. Symantec used to have a great QA back in 2000. The name remained as it is but the team has downgraded the product way below other competitors to the point of getting frustration on everything it can offer: huge, non-friendly, containg more than 1 module (anivirus) and making the product too complicated, not giving security enough to protect the system (e.g. to detect ZIP layers as much as 99) or detect high level heuristic, not free (see ANTIVIR, AVG, etc) and on top of that has a yearly license which will expire making the customer to miss the effectivness of the software and throw it in the recycle bin due to upgrading it to a different version (that could give him/her a surprise on the features and layout)..then getting to the point and asking...why both with the features, next year will have other...perhaps better onese...and the last but the most important part: DOES NOT DETECT ALL THE VIRUSES ON YOUR COMPUTER! Way to go...have Norton advertised in all Corporate Computer Stores, pay for it for 1 year and it DOES NOT DO THE PROMISE JOB.
