      Norton anti-virus has been telling me for a couple of weeks now that it is about to expire, and that i should renew for another 12 months. i decided i would just renew for now, since this should be quick and easy. i have never had any real problems with either Norton anti-virus or virus infections, being slightly paranoid probably helps here ;) then Norton's on-line renewal service rejected my details twice in a row, the first time i have ever had my details rejected anywhere :| so having reached my "i don't want to know anymore" limit what alternate anti-virus programs would people recommend? i have heard good things about grisoft's AVG but i have never used it myself. zen is the art of being at one with the two'ness

      I'm happier with the AVG free version (that I use at home) than I am with Norton that they installed on my machine at the office. For a licensed version of AVG, the fee is very reasonable.

        Norton Antivirus is one of the best solutions in the Antivirus software , but it slows down the machine too much. So if you want high performance and not bad virus detection i'd suggest you to use Kaspersky Antivirus Personal 5 or even better, EsetNod32.

        We just moved to NOD32 here at work. We used to use McAfee VirusScan Enterprise, but the licensing fees for 100+ users just went up 50% for this next year. Our IT guys decided to look at other alternatives. I actually like the NOD software because it also looks at Spyware and Trojans when you browse.

          It really offers very good protection and does not eat much resources.
