Different strokes
On nearly every computer that i've had, I have had problems with McAfee anti-virus slowing my computer, and even interfering with other programs, but when I replaced McAfee with NAV I had none of the previous problems. McAfee even messed up the graphics for the game "Free Cell"........WTF!?

Now I use "AntiVir" free version, and it seems, so far, to be trouble free on all of my machines and friends machines that i've installed it on.

You've gotta wonder though, Symantec IS competition for MS.........?
