A couple of links + internet security question

Two jailed after bridge built by blind man collapses - equal opportunities for the disabled?

Thinking of purchasing an internet security software since Norton has expired and it's using more of the system resources than I'd like. It's a contest between Kaspersky vs AVG. AVG is good, Kaspersky has stellar reviews, but although it's about the same price as AVG, the licence is only 1 year vs AVG's 2 years.

I could just stick to the free version... the thing is, because I'm using Microsoft's ICS, I can't use free ZoneAlarm as my firewall (using Sygate atm, don't like it much, it's ugly and annoying). So I thought I might as well pay for a whole firewall + antivirus software. Any advice on this?

(re Norton: after uninstalling it from the laptop, the average temperature of the machine has gone down by about 10C. What the hell.)

I think I've just about sorted all the email accumulated over the past 10 days.

BBC Breakfast had reached the pinnacle of being punny this morning. But I can't remember the actual puns. Something about bees...
