Check out AVG. It's fairly inexpensive and it runs well on Win2K and up. Norton hinders more than it helps. I remove all copies of the NAV stuff from OEM PCs. I've never had anything but problems from it. Grisoft uses Inktomi for their updates, so upgrades and updates are typically fast. Plus, it's not a famous virus scanner, so trojans and bugs won't look for scanner files to mask. I dunno how many times NAV has gotten infected before it even knew there was a virus!
