Well I have been using Norton Pro 2003 Anti-Virus for some time now. I am getting a bit fed up with it because sometimes when I start my system, my system will just keep running something in the background, slowing it down tremendously, and not allowing me to do anything. I went into "msconfig" and found out that if I Disable all 3 of the Norton Antivirus startup processes and then reboot my computer, I have no problems. Norton just KILLS system resources and I am sick and tired of it.
I need to find another Antivirus program that provides just as good of protection as Norton, if not better, and that runs FAST and takes up very little system resources. I hate using the computer and then my daily full system virus scan takes place and slows me down to a crawl. I need something that is actually coded correctly to run with low system resources. The program also needs to also automatically updates it virus definition files. Any help?
