Marco,
Ive been using etherreal throughout my studies, I tried 2 versions during my
studies, over last year and a half, which last trial with a couple of month
ago, it blue screened my windows xp professional operating sytem, I have
installed many applications, but I am only going to go with something
reliable, because I only have one computer. And all of my important
information is on here. I fortunatley was able to do a restore from the
operating system, to a point in time before I installed etherreal. Network
Associates, ive been told is very solid, and many corporations use this
software, I just downloaded the eval version to try it out, before I spend
my money. The person who suggested network associates to me is a CCIE and a
reliable source. And that is what he used for his studies. Again, thanks
for all the feedback, it really helped me in my decision. I dont want to
start a thread on this so please, refrain from responding, I have made my
decision, if you would like to email me directly then please do so, but
please dont respond to group.
Sincerely,
Matijevic
