Is Symantec Norton Anti-virus The Best?

Looks like the topic's should have it's name changed to Free Antivirus Software. Everybody wants it for free and then we have all those "how to" topics when a computer gets infected. Does the OP need a free antivirus software? If not, let's keep it on topic.

What's the matter, didnt you get to play hall monitor enough times when you were in 3rd grade? Who died an appointed you Grand Poobah?

Like Cdnvic I use Nod32. IMHO, paying for Nod32 is worth it. You can always test it out for 30 days to see if you like it.

I personally think a lot of software on the market is overpriced, but Nod32 is reasonably priced and one of the better (if not the best) anti-virus program on the market. It is also not a resource hog.

Free is just that, free.

If I offer you dinner, for nothing, with no strings attached, and the chef is my wife who also happens to be the top chef at the Peninsula, are you going to turn it down because you want to buy dinner?

Nonsense.

Antivir is superb, and it is free.

Use it.

this is one of the great things about internet 2.0

and in some cases the company gets lucky. look at how many billions youtube and myspace got.
