As much as I download the warez version as most people, even if I was to buy Norton Antivirus I can't stand having to compulsory upgrade EVERY year. I means its holding my comp hostage "Give us more money or else we won't protect you no more".
It does stop the piraters to a certain degree I must aagree though.

I'm sad to see Symantec kind of disgraced the name of Norton.
Back in the good old times, Norton was a synonymous for instant win. Ah, Norton Commander, Norton Utilities... It all died when Symantec bought all of it and fucking Windows 95 was launched.

Kaspersky AV if you don't want to upgrade.
I have an old console scanner from 1999, and guess what? KAV virus definition updates still work just fine six years later...

my university gave us old corporate copies of NAV. we get definitions for free with no activation/subscription necessary, and it works lovely. it's not all GRAPHICALLY DROOLWORTHY like they seem to try to make the newer versions, but that's fine. it's functional, and unfagg0ty.

GRAPHICALLY DROOLWORTHY
I hate, hate, hate when they do this. Give me a scanner that doesn't need several gigs of ram, the newest cpu, and enough pointless glitz to put an MTV producer into fits of orgasmic ecstacy.
Fucking hell, whatever happened to functional?

Ooh I see no one has suggested installing Linux so you don't have to run a virus scanner. Let me be the first to turn this thread into a pointless flamewar.
