    I think if you had a 3rd option in your poll for 'Neither' then you'd get your answer.

    Uninstall everything to do with McAfee or Norton and install MSE (Microsoft Security Essentials) instead.

    I have AVG. I was going to get norton and was told it slows down the system a lot. This i was told by a couple of people so I would have went with McAfee..

    I have AVG however and have been very happy with it. In there second year you buy a 2 year licence for the same price as one year. I am told this is standard.

    Kick ass combo of MS Security essentials and Spybot S&D. I install it on any machine I work on. Including the riddled heap that I was given yesterday that had a spoof spyware app, no AV and hadn't been defragged since 2007. When will people learn!
