That may be true for sighted users, but I don't think either Macafee or
Norton are accessible. That's why I switched to AVG myself a year or
more ago. BTW, I also got a noticeable boost in performance when I left
Norton behind, although I was using more of Norton's features than I'm
using with AVG, so it's not a fair comparison.
