My McAfee subscription ran out a while ago and i'm looking to change, mostly because it let through a whole bunch of viruses that have destroyed me and i'm bitter.

I'm taking suggestions on software, thinking about going with Norton. Entice me with something.

I use Avast...it's free and it does a great job

might as well give free AV a chance, since you don't seem to be getting much protection from your paid option

Norton Systemworks and Ad-Aware ---> no problems

I've been using AVG free for the last month or so since my paid subscription ran out, but the other day my housemate simultaneously ran a scan with AVG free and Norton on his PC and Norton picked up a handful of things that AVG didn't, so i'm sceptical to say the least.

In my experience, free software seems to be free for a reason (not saying it is without its merits, tho).

I have a paid version of Avast, but the free version is great too. (I write the cost off.)

AVG works great, and as Mike said, is FREE

Avast + AVG Free = no complaints.
