Thanks Ellen,
I have tried AVG and find the user interface to be cumbersome. But you
are right AVG is good and does not seem to hog resources. A plus - they
are a German company.

Have you looked at AVG?
Equally good to McAfee and Norton, Equally foreign, but many more positive testimonies.

AV. After reading CNET's review of Norton ( it is a pig, 300MB in size
and monopolizes 258MB of memory) I was thinking of switching to
Kaspersky. Any thoughts would be appreciated. McAfee is not on my list
because it is a pain. I have used AVG, but the user interface leaves
much room for improvement.
My biggest concern is that this is a Russian company, and it just seems
odd to me that the CNET best rated security software is from a country
where the Russian Mob extorts money from virtually every business.
Somehow I get the uncomfortable feeling that they are some how involved
in this and stand to profit greatly. When you go to the Media Contacts
on their website, it puzzles me that every worldwide office has a
mailing address except the Headquarters.
Their contact information does give an address in Moscow as their
Headquarters.
Please tell me I am just being paranoid, and that this is safe software.
