Norton AntiVirus 2009:Most popular antivirus software
pros:-
Excels at detecting viruses
Light and fast
Easy-to-use interface
cons:-
Windows XP conflicts
Poor online technical support
March 2009. Symantec has made some significant design changes with Norton AntiVirus 2009, and reviewers say there’s a noticeable improvement in speed and footprint. This year’s user reviews contain fewer complaints about resource drain and software incompatibility, although some owners report clashes with Windows XP. Most reviewers say Norton has a simple and intuitive interface, and it does well in lab tests for virus detection. ESET NOD32 4.0 (*est. $35) does slightly better overall with reviewers and earns much higher user ratings, but some say the improved interface is still too complex for beginners. Security experts recommend anti-spyware and firewall programs in addition to virus detection software. One option is to get an all-inclusive suite like Norton Internet Security 2009 (*est. $45).
We found a good review of Norton AntiVirus 2009 at CNet.com. Robert Vamosi weighs in on features, performance and ease of use. CNet has some user reviews following the main article, but we found more substantial coverage from owners at Amazon.com. Geek.com and TopTenReviews.com also provide some information.
