Which internet security is better: Norton, AVG, or Avast?

I know Norton uses up a lot of space and CPU usage, and has “VIRUS” pretty much written all over it. And AVG, it doesn’t do full protection unless you buy the whole thing. And avast, well, I don’t know. What are your opinions? I have a Windows XP, gateway. And I’m looking for a good internet security program. I already have Spybot - Search and Destroy and SpywareBlaster. Now I need an internet security. Opinions?

Answer #1

Answer #6

I use avira as it is free aned I have had so much trouble with both AVG and avast. Avira hasn’t given me any issues yet.

Answer #7

I like Avira…I hv been using it for 2 years now touch wood, no complaints. I had issues with AVG in the past got a huge virus & needed my tech guy to remote admin my comp for 3 hours to fully get rid of it. Even ccleaner couldnt do it it had to be manually deleted…omg, so no more AVG for me…as for Avast, I found it irritating so I got rid of it as well…nev going back to that one either.

Answer #8

oh btw, I used to use spybot search and destroy too, not anymore…I like ad-aware more…here read this to decide…just something I came across as interesting. http://funadvice.com/r/157dil0drp0

Answer #9

I run Avast for antivirus, Spybot S&D for spyware and its active protection, then Comodo as my firewall. Can’t say I have really had a virus since I started using that trio.

Answer #10

I gave up on AVG because I had to reformat several computers after a virus spread between over our network at work. AVG didn’t even notice.

Answer #11

Answer #12
