Re: Android Tablets

I used to run AVG but my IT guys at work said Avast! was better so I run that now. Regular updates and no problems.

Re: Android Tablets

I use a micro fibre cloth to wipe the screen of my iPad.....it easily removes all marks and fingerprints. I now use a stylus instead of my fingers and find it suits me better.
