norton vs mcafee
I have a Studio Windows 7 that came with McAfee installed. Should I stay with it or switch to Norton? Have always used Norton because my first Dell desktop in 1999 had conflicts with McAfee. Have been told it is better now. Any thoughts?

In my personal experience, both McAfee and Norton cause many more problems than they solve. I would never again use either one of them. If you feel the need for anti-virus, Win7 has Microsoft Security Essentials which (as much as I dislike MS) seems much less obtrusive and less likely to damage your files.

I agree Both are Horrible. Use Microsoft Security Essentials.
