I have used Norton since before college and have never really had any problems. I got an email from them today that my credit card will be hit for like $50 since my subscription is up. I have a day or two to change my mind if I want to cancel the subscription and get something else. Are there any other programs out there that are as reliable and less expensive? As long as it has live updates for virus definitions and can be on more than one computer (we have a desktop and laptop at home) it would be fine with me.
What do you guys use? The only program that I used and did not like was McAfee.
I am also a fan of AVG. I recommend it to all of my clients, use it at home, and have deployed the network version to more computers than I care to remember.
The free version leaves out some anti spam stuff though.
on this machine i don’t have anti-virus. It’s running linux and I don’t do anything risky with it. On my Vista PC i use Macafee, i’ve been using it for years as comcast provided it for free. Anytime i build or rebuild systems for people I throw AVG free edition on unless if they have a comcast ID to get macafee.
I prefer NOD32 when someone wants to pay for it, AVG free is good enough for someone who doesn’t care about the best. It’s better than running nothing. I dislike Mcafee/Norton crap entirely. That stuff sucks. Symantec AV corp edition is alright too.
