I need a new virus protection cause my free norton i got with new computer is pritty much expired and i kinda hated norton.
So im wondering what you think is the one worth while getting in the long term. I don't really want some random crap i haven't heard of.
Also please explain why it''s better and so on cause im not very smart in the tech department.

For a firewall, go with COMODO Internet Security. Its the best free firewall in the security business.

I used McAfee a while ago, around a year or so.
It was pretty good, but unless you want a really ultra, uber, insanely reliable AV, you gotta pay.
Avast! or AVG Free are my epic wins.

No one is reading what i posted...
Mcafee is fail, AVG is EPIC FAIL!!!
Look at the link. These products claim to secure your computer. If so, they should ace the test shown.
Well I had almost no problem with McAfee.
So I didn't not read your post, I just didn't reply to it :)

Avira is the best, and I don't care what atirox link says, when it comes to free anti viruses.
If he wants to throw out reports, then check this out:
http://www.av-comparatives.org/images/stories/test/ondret/avc_report21.pdf
Far more thorough and extensive. Those of you who wish to see results without reading, go to page 9 and look at the graph.
