My Norton license is not vlid anymore, and looking for some new AV program... I saw NAV 2005, and it sucked ass, so much crap besdies anti virus.

Is Kaspersky one of the best? Or would you advice any other?

Just like a hard drive failure.. its not IF, its WHEN!

Andre,

If you want the best, use AVG.

Finds the most, using little of your CPU / HD.

Easy to install and deinstall, easy .dat upgrades etc. etc.

Read the tests and reviews, try it, you'll love it and never ever use the slow Norton / McAfee / Kaspersky crap again.

Good luck.

I'm not sure about paid AVG version, but the free one sucks some major ass.
My friend was using it and complained about his computer being slow as hell all the time. He installed Kaspersky and it found a whole bunch of viruses

Use the Pro version, here it uses 6% idle, 39% scanning.

Norton isnt as bad as a lot of people say, although like all symantec products its become bloated over the years. I am going to change too when my license expires, but one thing you need to remember. You should time the change for when you do a fresh (re)install of windows, otherwise its damn near impossible to remove all the norton stuff from your machine.
