Everyone tells me that Macafee and Noerton are the best. 

I realise that AVG can be made accessible, etc, but wouldn't we all
prefer better protection? 

I'll duck now and wait for the emails on how norton and that other one
are system terrorists and actually aren't as good as people say they
are.

But seriously, I'm assuming that Norton and Macafee will protect my
computer more effectively - accessible or not. Yes?

Hi Mandy, yes I have used both and still have AVG on one of my
computers.  I
think Avast has the edge although I don't have the new version of AVG.

Cheers

Ron how do you find it when compared to AVG or did you never use that?
Is
it supposed to be better than AVG which seems to be recognised by a lot
of
computer repairers?
