I had Norton and McAffee on the same computer once. I had to get rid of that computer because they conflicted so much...

I use McAffee (comes free with my Cox Internet). And so far so good with the 7100 64bit Win7. It does some to be a bit of a resource hog at startup tho.

Good combo. In the U.S, McAffee and Norton are the two top choices.

Why would some be better only in certain countries?

The scan is fast, yes, but we have to see how deep and efficent the scan is.

I'll be waiting av-comparatives test before i could say it's good.

I've read that the public beta of Microsoft Security Essentials will be available on June 23rd. There is already a review up on winsupersite.com which is very positive - we should more see reviews soon after.
