You'll have to check with Rogers on that. Most ISPs make antivirus and antispyware software available to their customers. Each one is different.
Norton does have some performance issues, but all antivirus software does. If Rogers offers Norton, at least you'll be able to get free tech support from them.
There are some free AV packages out there such as Avast http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html or AVG http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1 that are fairly good as well.
Based on experience on a large enterprise network (over 12,000 machines) McAfee is probably the best compromise on security, performance, and cost. Admittedly that's based on the enterprise version but the SOHO/consumer versions use the same scanning engine and virus defs.

Don't ever install Norton on your computer. I repair computers and 90% of all connection problems are caused by norton

Good day. I HIGHLY recommend not to get norton. They are well documented to cause system drag. U will regret it believe me. The thing is after a year u have to pay so it sucks. AVG Antivirus or AVAST is good free antivirus programs. Laterz.

It relies upon on what you're wanting to pay for defense. Norton is a solid application in case you go with to pay. There are great loose classes accessible although. AVG is the ideal "loose" Anti-virus utility accessible. you moreover might choose advert-conscious for cleansing advert-ware information, and secret agent-Bot S&D for cleansing secret agent-Ware. i take advantage of those 3 and have not had any issues for atleast 5 years that i will think of returned.
