Antivirus rules
well I switched to Norton back in 2009 when they started getting positive reviews for keeping resource usage at a minimum. I haven't had any real complaints with it until this 2012 version. Ever since installing it my computer runs sluggish & found it was Norton (ccSvcHst.exe) eating up 88% of my CPU just idling, it wasn't even scanning! Norton is quick to report other applications with resource usage but doesn't report itself. I cannot in good conscious recommend this product until they fix this issue & go back to using minimum resources as they did in 2009-2011. There are other free antivirus products like zenok that I am testing right now that hardly uses any resources so There is a lot to find besides avast and Norton. I am testing Avast as well they have a lot pop-up messages that somethimes can be annoying but is also a complete suite.
