My thoughts as well. Norton Corporate works OK. Norton home is another story - resource hog. McAffee subtle problems, AVG light resource usage for contrained systems. Scan with MultiAV - trend, sophos, mcafee, kaspersky, symantec when hunting the bad guys. I use Linux for myself. Get tired of all the windows security problems.
