Has anybody had problems with CA, which I think stands for Computer Associates, the internet security service provided free by Road Runner?
When I first signed up with Road Runner I had Norton security, but when my subscription ran out I decided to try the free CA, since Road Runner promised it was just as good, and free. I had nothing but trouble with it. Among other problems, my personal files would take ages to load, even if I'd just shut them, and every website I visited I would get a message from Google telling me the site had become unresponsive.
Someone told me to uninstall it and and use Microsoft Essentials instead, and my computer's been zipping along at proper speed since.
This is a true account of my experience, and I do not work for Microsoft.

Good move. MSE is not a resource hog unlike some other AV's
