Avast has two great things going for it – the product itself, of course, plus the support on the forums here. Beats the heck out taking your chances getting through to an 800 number for service any old day.

With specific regard to Norton, let me add another comment. Aside from the difference in price, if you install Norton it literally takes over your computer, and if you then decide you don’t want it after all, it’s a major job to get it all properly cleaned out so you can use something else.

Best,
