AVG Anti Virus or Norton Anti Virus 2004

Statistically Norton is far more effective, but i hate the way it works and the GUI.

Continuing is it necessary to have a firewall. Will the windows internal firewall be enough or is another needed. If so can you recommend any freeones that do the job well and no need for serials or any crap like that.

Use your Norton AntiVirus and get Zone Alarm firewall: http://www.zonelabs.com/store/conten...eeDownload.jsp

The poor guy is asking if he should use AVG or Norton not what firewall or if Symantec is good

Norton will probably find more viruses, but I prefer the AVG gui, and the fact that avg doesn't render your system unbootable(even if it has been uninstalled) if you try to install KAV instead later.

Oh and the protected wastebin is a piece of shite function too, if they still do that.
