Worthless Antivirus Software?

[ae4tr]

   I agree that Norton is useless, I used it for a year, or so and it cause me more greif than it was worth.  So when it came time to renue, I dumped it and installed a free antivirus program.  AVG.  Have had no problems with it for over a year now.  AVG is free, it works.

To all,
I have had this computer ~ 2yrs now and I subscribed to the Norton Antivirus when the 90 day free subscription was up and when it came time to renew Norton gave me the choice of maintaining the current software or upgrading so I spent ~ $70 on the software upgrade and have had nothing but issues since.  I did say that the anti virus had found infections on this unit but is unable to access the files or delete them, so again I ask, If the antivirus software cannot rid me of the infections what good is it?  Maybe one of you can suggest a way to delete the files?  I came to this forum for help.

PC_Illiterate.....Usually when Norton identifies something and it is unable to delete it ........the location of the file, as well as the threat that it contains will be given .....or has Norton quarintined it ?
