I'm very surprised about Norton's lead. I've always found it to be a resource hog and never had a positive experience with it......:eek::orb:

I couldn't vote.....my stuff's not in the poll.;)

The Windows firewall, Microsoft Security Essentials, and PCTools ThreatFire are what always runs, and I have the free version of Malwarebytes that I manually run once a week. Combined with Adblock Plus and NoScript on my Firefox 3.6, nothing gets through.:geek:

MSE isn't a suite though. Just AV.

Doh! Very true. It looks like I always associate windows firewall/defender with it and make it a suite in my little world:p

I'm very surprised about Norton's lead. I've always found it to be a resource hog and never had a positive experience with it......:eek::orb:

I will have to agree. I work as tech support tech at an ISP and Norton Internet Security causes more issues than anything with the exception of malware. The verdict is still out on the 2010 version however. I haven't run into any problems with it thus far.

Since the 2009 version Norton av programs have become some of the lightest on resources.

I used to run with Norton until a few years ago. I then switched to Kaspersky, but for the past couple of years, I have used the free edition of Avast!, which I know is just AV and not a full security suite. Given the choice, and the fact that I have had zero problems with Avast!, it gets my vote as a full security suite (even though I would have to pay for it).
