Hi All,
This is my first post here on the forum. I've been using Norton AV for the past year or so. Due to the fact that my internet provider freely offers it as a bonus for being a customer, but I feel that it's just way to resources hungry. Taking up much needed disk space, not to mention it's high cup usage and annoying pop-up's.
Would anyone be able to offer me any alternatives, when replacing Norton's bloated software. To help give my machine it's much needed protection?
Regards.
