What is a good computer security software program OTHER than Norton McAfee?

Question

I hear the "Big Two" mentioned above use an awful lot of space/memory or something. Anyone use anything else that seems to do as good a job or better yet not be a "hog"???

Answer 1

Hi,

this is the only one to use "AVG 8" and it's free and comes with free updates as well, please NEVER use Norton's unless you want a really slow system with lots of problems. hope this helps you.
