Default PC antivirus software question

not surprizing at all they were down on norton. I gave up on them 10 years
ago. They create their own problems to fix to justify their existance.

I'm a wondering what everyone is using for AV software. I've been using
Trend micro pc-cillin for a few years, but it seems the 2008 version is

great. My local pc hardware guy agrees and recommends Kaspersky 2008
Internet Security. Anyone heard of or used this one?


thanks for all your input.

What is "not so great" about what you are using?


Get and read the latest issue of Consumer Reports. They did an extensive
comparison and rated many antivirus suites both free and for sale. They
liked BitDefender very much, were surprisingly down on Norton/Symantec
(the suite I use) and also down on Trend PCCillin, the product I
previously used but found way too slow and buggy.
