I didn't think it was necessary in order to register a compaint over speed to satisfy your personal list of requirements. The issue has been confirmed as a problem in the area and given several fault reference numbers covering a number of UBRs.

The annoyance in this thread (and others similar to it) is beacuse they know about it and have done for quite a while - but have shown no intetion of fixing it.

Whilst not a great product, I'd be concered if Virgin offering and advertising their broadband with anti virus turned around and used that as one of their many barriers to admitting a fault.

Already covered in the diagnostics with tech support, turning off the AV, trying the PC in safe mode as mentioned in my previous postings and also using an alternative PC.

For the record I use NOD32.
