  1. OBVIOUS? on Symantec Labels Vicars' Software as Spyware · · Score: 1

    Norton has long since been a joke.

    Any anti-virus with a 256mb+ footprint is a joke.

    The Internet Security product suite is beyond a joke.

    Any firewall with 2,000 registry modifications is beyond a joke.

    Symantec corporate edition is pretty good at what it does.

    AVG isn't resource hungry, but has relatively poor detection rates. It is free software, though.

    Most people don't get rare, morphing, 0-day viruses though, so detection rates aren't always of utmost importance.

    NOD32 has a memory footprint of 10mb. It also is always one of the top three highest detection rates in the industry. (Norton never makes top three)

    Any questions?
