Thanks for all the responses.

 

I was surprised to get that many responses. It's obviously a critical issue.

 

Appreciate your inputs

Greetings --

In the old days, Norton was big, slow, and interfered with other programs.  So we began using AVG Free.  A few months ago, AVG began getting seriously in the way of other programs.  After a bit of research, Norton 2009 seemed to be best reviewed.  We have switched to Norton Internet Security on all of our machines, and like it much better.

Fry's has it on sale for $9.99 for a package that can be installed for three users.  (I bought too soon.)

Thanks,
Howard

I use HouseCall (free version) once per month for about 5 years now.
I like it.

I use Firefox with the add-on "IE Tab" if a site requires ActiveX
functionality (like VectorVest). Stay away from IE7.
