Avast is a great program. I've been running it for about a year. Norton made me crazy. Good choice Smile

AVG is just as good.

Avast found two trojons on my comp that norton didn't. I suggest those using Norton to visit another website and scan their computers to check if Norton is doing a good job.
Yeah, I took a closer look at AVG and it does seem pretty good.

One other thing... Avast can be a little over cautious at times (such as when visiting some sites and thinking that there's a trojan in the script, perhaps there really is?) but better to be over cautious than under Smile

What eas your problem with Norton? I've Noton and I thin it makes the system very slow specially when you are copying/moving/extracting/compressing large files

Any other relevant issue to move from Norton?

Avast and AVG are free! They are better than norton and faster too. I remeber just scanning a small zip file took forever, not to scan but for norton to load Surprised The updates for Avast is impressive too. I think you will be better off with another antivirus than norton.
