BTW, Microsoft has released an AV/AJ/FW product called "Microsoft Security Essentials", which is rated highly by those who use it. It is free and updates the DAT files regularly. It doesn't have any ads embedded and no nag screens. You'd think it was a FOSS project.
It is basically the client app of the forefront commercial suite. It was released as an apology for the last disaster AV suite that MS built.
They bought in outside help to develop forefront. Apparently if you connect a PC running security essentials to a network running forefront, it is recognised by the forefront server as the client and gets updated etc. Yes it is very good, it even cleans up those nasty fake AVs that no other AV and only one anti-malware product detects. And it is very unobtrusive.
Just found that desktop/netbook switcher, very cool.
What kind of attitude is this ? I'm too stupid to use it, so it should be discontinued ?!? Hell, if Kubuntu is beyond your skills go and buy a Mac but for God's sake spare us with comments like this !!
I've got my own history of disappointments with Kubuntu, but 10.10 rocks, especially with the KDE 4.6 update from the PPAs. Besides, no one who has got half a brain would seriously do the "full System Upgrade" thing - you install the new release to the other partition and then switch over when / if everything works (mind you, this is a good survival strategy for Windows, too).

10.10 is just Ubuntu. It 's KDE 4.6 that makes it "rock"! 8)
