I agree. I used Norton IS 2003. Persevered for some time, then finally
decided it was slowing down my machine too much. Decided to give Norton
Systemworks 2006 a try (wanted Ghost). Gave up on it after a month or so.
Their stuff is complete tosh. It's OK if you want your nice powerful system
to run like the last computer you had and dumped. But if you want something
usable, don't consider it.
I use AVG on XP, and Avast on Vista-64.
