Some Qs about the laptop arriving in June:

What OS? 32-bit or 64-bit?
What antivirus are you going to be installing?

Have you considered a paid suite?

You do not need to suppress the firewall or D+ alerts(pop ups). Thats only for noobs or people who dont wanna see pop ups. Just leave it be. Use the Proactive profile. Firewall = Safe Mode and D+ = Safe Mode.

In safe mode it will give you lesser popups and improtant notification only.

No james you are wrong. The proactive profile along with D+ and the firewall in Safe mode will give you more pop ups then the default profile.
