      Norton is rubbish, it's notoriously bloated and likes to take over your system. You need to run anti-spyware and you need to have an anti-virus - but not Norton.

      No single anti-spyware application is perfect so I recommend using at least 2 different programs. Spybot Search & Destroy is one of the best. I also recommend SUPERAntiSpyware. Other free anti-spyware programs would be Adaware, AVG Anti-spyware (formally Ewido), A-squared, Spyware Terminator and SpywareBlaster.

      If you do not have an updated anti-virus program always running, you need to get one. Install only one, but you can get AVG, Avast! or AntiVir for free.

      I strongly recommend using FireFox, it's a far better and safer alternative to Internet Explorer. If you add-on McAfee SiteAdvisor, it will warn you of potentially harmful sites. I also recommend CCleaner which is a free system optimization and privacy tool.

      Nortons is pure junk with skilled marketing skills. Fails to find viruses, remove if found, leaves behind viruses they claimed to have quarantine or deleted. And is almost impossilbe to remove from your system even with their removal tool. Usually will leave behind about 375 fragments of Nortons & Symantec in your system to cause you serious conflict. Plus will eat up all your resources.
