It works and did not slow down my 2 gb ram 2.13 GHZ core 2 duo computer running XP SP3. The loading times are significantly faster than McAffee, which took 1.5 to 2 minutes to set up the firewall before I could even surf the web. It still takes 50-60 seconds to load the firewall after startup, and that is why I gave it a 4 stars.

It automatically deletes the tracking cookies on your computer after each scan, which is nice. Future versions should feature automatic tracking cookie blockers. It also ID’s suspicious websites before you visit and allows you to change your mind.

Update- Trend Micro’s monthly newsletter recommended a registry cleaner. I ran the trial version and start up time is under 30 seconds again. This suggests that start up slowness from other AV programs can be solved in a similar way.
