McAfee is the better of the 2 in my opinion.

Norton is just popular

Your uncle let 1000 viruses onto his computer.  Prevention begins with the users.

I heard that "Panda Titanium 2005" is good software. I use "ZoneAlarm Suite"

Mcaffe is absolute garbage.

You're better off with the free anti-virus AVG.

norton is better, it is far more comprihensive than mcaffe and it will pick up any virus. When running scans the solution to not experiancing major lag is to just not use the comp! its that easy ^^! YEs admitadly you will have to turn off its firewall and disable the internet security to actually be able to do anything online, and when playing games for the first time you will need to click ok to some thing to permit its use [or in the case of BF2 4 times ><!!] but despite that it is much better.
