Norton is very good. McAfee is good too, but it slows down your system a bit.

If you don't want a virus in your computer you can use another software instead of windows

Trojan Remover is by far the best program in removing viruses. It does not slow your system down at all. This program can find things on your computer that Norton and McAfee cannot.

The bad thing about it is that it is not on all the time. You must run it. That should be no problem because you should run it every time you download something anyways.

I strongly recommend Kaspersky, especially the KIS (Kaspersky Internet Security Suite). I have used no less than 5 different anti-virus software and Kaspersky is the best and the most suitable one for me. If your PC has a good performance, I think KIS just fits.

I am a Nod32 user and I am happy with it. I tried a lot of anti-viruses before but they consume a lot of memory and do not were efficient. That's the reason I recommend Nod32.
