    Yeah what do you all think of Mcafee Virus Scan? Is it better than Norton...accessibility, ease of use, updates. I want to purchase it and many say Norton is Better.

    Only anti-virus you'll ever need. Free for the trial version (the only thing you can't do with it is schedule scans), free updates, works great. Only AV proggie I use and ever will use. I bought the real version just for the scheduler and for a few other little things. Details on the site!!

    Seeing as how I never really answered the first question, McAfee is better then Norton IMHO. Norton like to keep spamming you with reminders when your free trial for their updates runs out, which caused my old PC to screw up really bad. The only real downfall with McAfee is that it costs money, otherwise it is a great Anti-Virus program, and their fire-wall is pretty good at catching things.

    The only problem I've run into with McAfee is that sometimes it has a tendency to hog CPU resources (especially on startup). Even with that slight caveat, it still does whip Norton's lil butt...
