Anything corporate edition isn't as bad. For some reason when they make home editions, it's dumbed down and jampacked with junk you don't need. Even McAfee corporate editions aren't bad. But yes, main reason Norton is terrible is because it's a huge resource hog. That's the only bad thing I found about it.

And if you have all the annoying alerts on, you'll get asked for permission before you start anything. Annoying. If you get hit by a virus, fat chance you'll get it off by scanning. AVG is a good one to have.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
