    Don't know about Norton, but if you have to uninstall it I would recommend AVG.

    Best I've used so far on any system is Avira Antivir. Fast, reliable, quick updates and easy on resources.

    I got rid of Norton five years ago and no regrets. Got Zone Alarm now and so far I'm happy with it.
