This has been my second day of using Windows 7. And I have a licensed version of Norton Anti-Virus. It works just fine. And doesn't do anything to make my system go slower. So I don't like the idea of changing it. BUT. this is also my second day in myLot. and some discussions contain that Norton is the worst anti-virus in existence. If that is the case, then why is it in the Top10 anti-virus since the year it was created? Now, it's next to Kapersky. But we all know that Kapersky eats a lot of processes in our system. So prefer to not to use that. There are some who says that BitDefender is the best anti-virus for Windows7. Is it true? or do you have other suggestions you might think of sharing? I'm torned

I had bad experience with Norton a few Years ago and I will never trust it again I swear by the Anti Virus that I have been using for 6 years now and I will always use it It is free and it has saved my Laptop so many times from Viruses trying to get on here so I will never use Norton again and another I would not use is McFee

For the best anti-virus I have change whenever I don't get the update. First time I use Kapersky but after a few month they don't work in Windows ME so I change to NOD32 with XP and I don't get the licensed on this Anti-Virus after a month, then I install Avast but it make my computer slow down, and the last currently have Avira and I stop changing my anti-virus. I'm not sure I can give you the best Anti-Virus for Windows 7.

Oh, I think what you're doing is hard. Like, you change anti-virus from time-to-time. That is what my sister is doing for the past months. Because I'm not sure of what to recommend her.

Hi! Try with McAfee, it's pretty good and detects almost 94% of the viruses!

How about the processes it eats when your computer is running? I've used McAfee 5 years ago(Man,I didn't realize I'm that old. ^_^), I loved it's interface. But some says that Norton beats McAfee on detecting viruses. So, I'm not sure If I'll go back to McAfee. =(
