In my opinion (and in the opinion of many other experts), the BEST antiviral software ANYWHERE is Norton Antivirus. It has a long established history as being highly effective at preventing and eliminating virus infection. I've used it for years and never had a problem with it, and it has saved my 'tuckus' from potential infection on many, many occasions. It has an auto-update feature, which allows norton antivirus to update it's virus definitions automatically (and in the background) while you are online. It can automatically scan incoming email for infected attachments, and, for users of Outlook or Outlook Express, it has macro-virus protection. With purchase, you also get a year's worth of free virus definitions so that you're always ahead of the latest viruses. It's a great tool, easy to work with (on the rare occasions when you need to), and well worth the price.

I second that. Norton's protection is excellent, and the on-line auto-update feature is wonderful at keeping you several steps ahead of the hackers. A year's subscription is only something like $20, I think, and well worth it for the peace of mind! I've been running Norton on my home PC since I got it, and have yet to have any problems with nasty viruses.

Nasty *computer* viruses, anyway...

Get Norton. You can also get a bundle with Norton and Norton SystemWorks (or is it Norton Utilities?). Norton Utilities are worth getting too. Good for keeping your hard drive nice and defragged.

I know you hate it when your hard drive gets all fragmented.
