Checking www.av-comparatives.org , I would say that AVG or free solutions
are better than none, but don't have as high a detection rate as the big
companys' products.

If you must go for something free, I'd recommend Avast! Home Edition since
it has that awesome kernel mode scan.

Hehe, OTOH with Norton you don;t need a virus to slow you down... :)

I just tested the same PC before and after installation of Norton AV
2006. In open documents, speed tests on the net, playing games, there
was no noticeable performance difference.

Phil:

Once I got rid of Norton AV 2005, my paging file usage went down
dramatically.

I find a noticable difference in overall performance of my computer.
