Internet security speed?

Hi, I currently use Norton Internet Security 2007 and I like it. It does however slow down my computer considerably. It checks everything though. I need to renew my subscription and was wondering which security suite provides comparable protection but will not slow down my computer as much as Norton. Thanks so much.

Forget an entire suite. The windows firewall is good enough and all you need is Antivirus/Antispyware and an good antiphishing web brwoser like firefox or opera (just be careful on what you click on when you surf the WEB).

NOD32 is best. It has a low computer resource footprint and is the best at actually detecting and eliminating threats. Once you install it you will never have to fiddle with it until its time to renew your subscription.

If you really like norton then switch Norton 360. Its an All in one solution that uses less computer resources but is still expensive and kinda overkill. It does however not have as many popups and different settings for the modules because they are all unified. It has a nice Web backup feature though that will auto backup at night to the web (Norton gives you 2GB for free but you can buy more). It also has good parental lock control features.
