I ran Norton Antivirus several years ago on win2000pro but switched to AVG on all but two of my computers. I have an old win95 laptop that never goes on-line and another backup computer which I run ESET antivirus.

MalewareBytes is the only software that catches all the bad stuff. I run a scan once a week and it always has quarantined up to 80 hits. AVG2013 does pretty good with catching some of the bad stuff.

Then I run SpeedyPCTools to keep the computer from constipation with unnecessary files.

The newest of my laptops has win8pro and I was told by a MS sw engineer that it required no antivirus sw. I have AVG2013 running, just in case. I have some opinions on win8, but will spare all of you hearing about it.

This household has three desktops, three laptops, and couple kindles plus ipad-3 (enough for two people?)
