I had bad luck with Norton. Went to McAfee, all is well.

This free one is okay... but you need to get Mcafee, Norton Anti-Virus, or something like that. It's essential with all these asshats making virii all the time.

As a military member I get my free choice of either Norton or McAfee. I had McAfee for a few years and I'm using Norton. I've also used Panda which was great too.
These will all do their best to protect you but if you really try you can manage to screw up. Your behavior is the most important part of the security equasion. |

I use McAffe, Norton and AVG.
I now prefer McAffe, AVG works fine; I use Norton 2003 but will not use 2004 due to repeated problems. If I had to make a recommendation I would say AVG because it works and is FREE. Link: to AVG: free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/2/ |

Ditto. I used Norton for years, but the security suite went haywire on me. Ditched it for McAfee & all is good again. |

I use Norton, but have used McaFee in the past, I like both, either should do you well, as important as antivirus software is, don't forget a good firewall as well, plus the firewall will help keep popups to a minimum.

I use Norton in conjunction Internet Security Sysems's Black Ice. I also run Spybot and Ad-aware for spam and popups. Absolutely zero problems for the last year since I started this regimen.
P.S. If you're not using Mozilla Firefox for your browser, do so. Microsoft is more prone to trouble because all the hackers and vicious code writers want a piece of the big guy for bragging rights. |

I've used Norton AV for years with zero problems. In fact, they are very pro-active in updating theior virus definitions and relasing them through their "LiveUpdate" feature (a painless way to get the latest virus protection).
I also use Norton Personal Firewall with zero problems. The new Service Pack 2 for Windows XP comes with both a firewall and AV software. |
