Never had conflicts with it. Tech Support is very responsive. Disadvantage: F-Prot slows down startup of a few programs (most significant: Opera browser). Slowdown is much less on Vista. F-Prot are working on it and already had some success. -- Wilfried Hennings -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
