Does any anti virus program fits this description???

hi, i just installed CLEAN install of Windows 7 Upgrade (OEM) and it takes 45 seconds to boot up YAY
but ever since i installed norto n360...LOL 2 minutes? wtf? i hate resource hogging programs.

I am looking for an anti virus that is super great that barely affects your pc boot up (or no effects at all to make pc boot faster) and well...not a resource hog that makes ur comptuer crash.

so any suggestions for what antivirus programs (i need people who actually tried the product and has experienced it, not just suggestions without knowing) fits what i am looking for? i am currently using norton 360 3.0 its good but slows my laptop >_>

it took 40 seconds to boot up after i uninstalled the norton 360 LOL
so with this avast...does it seem to slow your boot up?

Lol I know exactly where you are coming from and support what Garysgold said about Avast i have been useing it for a long time now. I do a custom install with just Standard,Network & Web shields

Have found it lightwieght updates fast and delivers the goods when it comes to protection

Download FREE antivirus software - avast! Home Edition I also have used Avast home for years. You can do as stated above and do a custom install or once installed you can right clcik on the globe icon and disable whatever protections you don't feel you need or want. Once installed you'll see 2 globe icons I usualy merge the 2 into 1. Fabe

well im never gonna use norton 360 hahaha
so far avast...it eats 30 seconds of bootup so 70-75 seconds total
without one 40-45
but i guess there isnt any av that doesnt affect boot up.
ima try avg and see how that works out

what does this do? sorry for the stupid question. but didnt i already uninstalled norton 360?
