I think the last version of Norton I had the courage to install on my computer was around '99 or 2000. After that no more Norton, went with Kaspersky and lately with Avira Antivir. Its great, it doesn't bring your pc to a halt, it installs and disinstalls without problems and keeps everything in order. What more could you want ? :D

I've heard great things about Kapersky. I am cheap and use Avast! (on my Vista install, nothing extra running on my new Fedora install :) ). I could get Mcaffe free through my ISP but haven't bothered. I really don't do any "high risk" surfing.

PD

Well since Avira Antivir is free I guess I'm cheap too. :haha:
No point in buying a commercial antivirus when free alternatives are as good and have little to no limitations.
