Norton, since the day I got it I have NEVER had a problem of that nature and I used to get them all the time.

I had Norton for a while and the protection was good, but it used up a whole load of system resources, and made my computer take an age to boot up. Now I use Kaspersky, and its great. You barely know its running unless it finds a problem, and dealing with problems is a simple case of clicking yes when it asks you if you want to get rid of it.

I'd avoid Norton at all costs. I use NOD32 myself, Kapersky is also meant to be very good - don't know why you'd buy a 3rd party version of it though (or why they'd offer one).

Why don't you like Norton, Bongo? I gave up using it wayback after aforementioned resource-hogging.
I use AVG and the usual antispyware kits, seem to have been clean for a year now. Is AVG generally seen as weak?

Surely Kev's the man to ask?

*back on topic* I use AVG as well, after it was highly recommended about 18 months ago. Has it dropped performance?

Resource hogging, virus missing, problem causing... it's just utterly useless. Wasn't very impressed at their attempts to surreptitiously spam either.
