Norton anti-virus is too critical, and in my experience will slow your computor down, I personally like AVG which can be downloaded from somewhere like download.com and is completely free, also consider installing something like CCleaner or Advanced System Care which will just tweak your computor that little extra by clearing temps and cookies etc, these too are free...

Another vote for Avast. Paying for antivirus programs is a mugs game nowadays.

Any free antivirus as good as the pay ones as long as you keep updating them every few days mate, with AVG antivirus some programmes you have to disable AVG in order to install them.

Avast or Avira are good for catching nasties. I use Avast now as it looks nicer and has a user friendly interface
