Norton is becomming very bloated with system overhead these days and it shows up in a lack of performance, uses a ton of resources, therefore slowing a computers boot and responce times considerably. AVG free by Grisoft is a very good, free, and auto-updatable antivirus that works extremely well.

Norton antivirus 2003!! try to download that. get a free copy of that. if you cant. download it. you can try PC tool antivirus like the 1 im using. or get spy bot, or maybe ad-aware!! make sure its freeware
because if you get the 30 day trial, it will ask you to purchase. i would recommend you to get the freeware version. AND THOSE LAST YOU ABOUT A FULL YEAR!!

I saw that a recent PC magazine voted the free versions best of all, so hang in there! Viruses and spam and malware are all annoying. You could try these links, I've found them good. Upgrade & run them weekly to keep your PC free of unwanted ads etc. (Both are free). I've found that MacAfee used to be OK, but now doesn't allow people to uninstall it - bad move for them.
Good luck with your PC!

I suggest you stay with Kaspersky. NOD32 is also a very good anti-virus. Norton is also good, but it is a resource hog and slows your computer down.

You've got the best, stay with it.
The only other thing you need is a top anti-spyware and that is: CounterSpy. With these two on your computer you will have the best protection possible.
