Is PC Tools AntiVirus Free Edition 3.1.2 more efficient than Norton?free antivirus

PC Tools anti-virus Free edition does everything that an anti-virus has to do, and for free. Hence, it gets a high rating. Norton may be slightly better overall, but it updates weekly, is a big resource hog and is NOT free. That makes it a poor scorer. If you want to buy an anti-virus, go for Kaspersky / BitDefender / NOD32; if you want a free one (believe me, they do their job very efficiently), get anyone listed below:

Norton is way better but it's not the best and uses CPU. Use F-secure, Kaspersky, Avira, Active Virus Shield, or Bitdefender.

They're the BEST =D
