FWIW I've been using Norton AV for several years as a part of a Suite (got the original and upgrades at a good price). The only problem I've run into was related to uninstalling the older version prior to installing the later version; I ended up augmenting the 'normal' Windows' uninstall function with a special Symantec uninstall tool. If I had installed a stand alone Norton AV, I don't know if I would have had this problem. > I've also heard others rave about a free AV software that has > unlimited free updates.

There are several free (for personal use) AV programs; some provider URLs (in alphabetical order): #1 http://www.avast.com/ #2 http://www.free-av.com/ #3 http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_index.php #4 http://www.vcatch.com/download.html While I have no personal experience with any of these programs, I've heard positive comments from users of #1 and #3.
