In your opinion, what is the best antivirus software for Windows 7? What antivirus software do you use to protect your computer?

I am using Kaspersky Internet Security 2011. I have been using Kaspersky since 2005. From Windows XP and now using Windows 7, I still believe that Kaspersky is the best antivirus software that able to protect my computer and help me fight against the viruses very well.

Why I choose Kaspersky? First, it is light and does not use a lot of resources to run. Second, I can adjust the settings (advanced settings) and set it what I want. Third, it is compatible to run together with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware without having any problem. Lastly, because Datuk Lee Chong Wei and Jackie Chan are their ambassador (just kidding).

But yup, if you asked me what is the best antivirus software for Windows, I will say Kaspersky. How about you?

Facebook is now using lightbox photo viewer to view photos and albums. But this new feature is so annoying and useless.

Luckily, there are many ways that you can use to remove the new Facebook lightbox photo viewer (or “theater”).

  1. Hit F5 – When viewing any photo in Facebook lightbox, just hit F5 to refresh and it will go away.
  2. Remove &theater – At the address bar, remove the &theater from the URL and hit Enter.
  3. Facebook Lightbox Killer (Mozilla Firefox) – This is an addon for Mozilla Firefox. It will remove Facebook lightbox automatically when you viewing somebody’s photos.
  4. Facebook Lightbox Killer (Google Chrome) – Same like Facebook Lightbox Killer for Mozilla Firefox. This is an extension for Google Chrome that will kill the lightbox when viewing pictures on Facebook.

Hope this helps! 🙂
