>I agree with you here. People complain about Norton hogging system resources, but I've seen McAfee take more, sometimes as much as 30%.

Yep. I'd seen McAfee take up a lot of system resources -- and often more than what Norton usually did. However, I've never run into situation where McAfee let something through it shouldn't have, while I'd seen a lot of stuff get by Norton that it probably should've blocked. In the cases where Norton did eventually discover the malware, it often couldn't remove it (not sure why, but it had trouble accessing the system restore data -- something that most ofher antivirus programs do w/o problems).
