Seems to me, ya get what ya pay for. For a few bucks you can own Nortons and sleep better knowing you're prolly covered.

AVG is ok - Nortons is a joke and if you want the best you'll download Kaspersky.

norton doesn't cover anything dont spend any money

it's a useless piece of shit.

if you want protection, use spybot, hijackthis, and adaware in combination with firefox and spoofstick

Nortons fucked so much shit up on my computer.

I use AVG, it may not be the best, but it's worked perfect for me so far.

one reason Norton sucks is bcoz it uses too much processing power even
while on background. been using them for sometime but after trying out
TrendMicro, there's not turning back. so far so good.

I've been using a combination of AVG and Zone Alarm for 3 years and have been fine. Norton was responsible for the first time I had to refomat a computer
