My current subscription with Norton Anti Virus is experied and I need to renew it for $50 for another year (basic protection). I am wondering: should I renew it or look for a different software. Does anyone have a good anti-virus and a bit cheaper with good protection?
Any advise and recommendation will be much appreciated it.
thank you!

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/... On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps

The very best anti virus program I have found is AVG Free, and as the name says it if free for personal use. It has frequent, sometimes daily, updates and has never missed a virus on any of my machines and I have used it for years.

Have used Avast for the last year, and had no problems at all. Oh yeah, it is free.
