    Stay away from norton whatever you do! I used it and it was way more hassle than it was worth.

    Same experience here. I would never recommend Norton, since it was the worst anti virus I have seen.

    I am quite fond of Avira Anti-Vir. It's free and does nicely :)

    nice...can even get your spam link to work :rolleyes:

    anyway I was looking for something to slam Norton,

    but found this handy comparision between

    1. AntiVir
    2. Avast
    3. AVG

    instead: http://wiki.castlecops.com/AntiVirus_Comparison
    _________________________

    here's another side by side and it ranks them as follows:

    #1. Kaspersky
    #2. F-Secure Antivirus
    #3. McAfee VirusScan
    #4. Panda Titanium
    #5. Norton Antivirus
    #6. Avast! Professional
    #7. BitDefender

    http://www.anti-virus-review.net/Anti-Virus-Software/Reviews/compare.html

    ___________________________

    then finally a side by side of another 8

    notice a trend on the last 2 comparisons???? Norton is 5TH on both lists!!

    I was using AVG free but version 8 is really annoying trying to analize those links that Google displays so I switched to BitDefender.

    don't you hate that, when new versions are twice as bad as old ones?
    case in point: ad-aware. ad-aware, which is a great program, the 2007 version is a major pain in the *** compared to the Personal SE edition :rolleyes:

    i'm actually using norton for many years and it's always been working out for me.. but it does slow down the computer a lot when it's in use...

    my suggestion is to get ad-aware.. this helped me through some rough patches (trojans:()

    I used another antivirus before I use kaspersky but it could not remove some virus.
    Then I changed to kaspersky. I've been using kaspersky for year. It's powerful antivirus software.

    Well Avast is really good in the market and please don't go for the big companies because people taht do make viruses tend to make them with these antiviruses in mind.
