Another scary thing is computer viruses and the alternated, computer protection programs (reminds me of the voter fraud/voter suppression thing--which is really worse?) Because I've come to truly hate Norton, but have to admit that it works, I'm looking for alternatives. Has anyone used Avast?

ETA: Many people like AVG Free. If you use that, are you happy with just the virus protection and without a firewall? I think I have firewalls from Dell, TimeWarner, Google, etc., but also have been relying on Norton.

I have AVG, but the paid edition of AVG8. I upgraded from the free AVG. I had Norton ages ago, but when my computer was overhauled a few years ago my computer expert friend loaded AVG instead. It's been excellent. It's not that expensive to upgrade it either.
