Norton Antivirus?

[Eucharistfreak]

Hey all, I'm new to the forums, so hi.

Well anyways, I have Norton AV and Norton Internet Security, are they truly as good as they seem to be? I don't ever have any viruses detected, but I've heard from reviewers and people that Norton doesn't really work and that I might have dozens of viruses on my comp, is this true? I just want to know encase I have to do something about it. Thanks

God Bless

There is a chance that you might have viruses on your computer since Norton doesn't always pick up all the viruses.

I wouldn't use Norton if it were given to me. And McAfee is even worse.

The top of the line for an antivirus would be Nod32 and TrendMicro's PC-cillan,

I use Computer Associate's (CA) eTrust Antivirus and ZoneAlarm Pro firewall.

i dont use antispyware or antivirus, because personally you dont need it, whoever gets a virus its your fault because you dl porn or visit some website your friend gave to you as a wednesday joke, and dont get angry or anything that you did it on accident cuz i really dont give a crap, try running your computer with no antispyware or anything like that and use any other internet browser besides internet explorer and i can guarentee you wont get a virus (unless you if you want to play the duck game that comes on ebaumsworld.com's adds or click on your buddies' links, or dl some gay porn)

Where can I get those Antivirus programs?

How can I be sure there's nothing in my comp already?

I use Netscape just to let you guys know.

This is as funny as it is truthful.
