I dont care if it is free or not, but I need a light weight, fast, effective, low resource intensive AV. I hate how Norton is such a resource hog. Any suggestions?
 
Thanks, I was just looking at this as I read your reply. I think I am gonna drop NAV 2006 for this and drop ZA for Comodo.
 
Be careful when uninstalling Norton. You'll need to run the add/remove programs uninstaller for it (and whatever addons you may have), and you'll need to run the Norton Removal Tool. I've seen systems get fubar'd from trying to remove that mess before and it's a good idea to make sure you kill everything completely before trying to install another AV program. Thank god symantec corp. isn't that bad at least (although I still use NoNav if I ever need to reinstall it).


Oh yeah, do remove zone alarm. It's not much better than Norton in my opinion.
