All antivirus suites have their ups and downs it really depends on what you need. I suggest looking at reviews online from people who test them then deciding. I personally use avast but and it works fine but doesnt detect spyware. I'd reccomend it

norton is well known for using ALOT of system memory while running.Therefore if you are using programs such as Photoshop cs or syuch programs it WILL make your system run very slow.Also defo dont touch if you like to play pc games.

If you are looking for an effective anti virus that runs in the background without disturbing the pc speed then i would suggest ZoneAlarm.

It really depends on what you use your pc for but generallly people tend to go for norton based on it being the only one they know due to advertsing LMAO but ZoneAlarm is defo the way to go in my eyes :smoking: .

note zonealarm is evil for those who dont have a clue how to install it and generally are no good at being teached. *cough*
