i tried avg avast avira .... all cannot work ....
installation file "corrupt" for AVG installer, the OS dunno how to read it
the other 2 during installation detect the OS and say cannot install
actually this one is old server .... want to convert into home usage PC for my father ....
the C partition use up all the HDD space liao even though actual data only less than 10%
i also googled alot of software to try and shrink the partition and use the newly freed space to install windows XP .... but all the partition programs cannot work :(
really wasted the license if i delete and overwrite winxp over this OS ....
so i install firefox and google chrome on this win server 2003 OS .... but still cannot find any free anti-vir program to go with it ... risky to run it without anti-vir
