wouldn't touch Norton with a barge pole.

Mikeb, I agree with Zim as far a Norton is concerned, but i also agree with
you regarding OneCare. I have used OneCare extensively during the beta test
and i found it extremely slow and not as good as i expected. Suffice to say,
it is no longer on my system.
