    I tried EVRYTHING. Norton, McAffee, they all lag my PC! Anyone reccomend a non-lagging Anti-Virus?

    I use all of these together...

    Avast!
    ZoneAlarm
    Spybot: Search & Destroy
    AdAware SE

    All of them together work better than Norton or McAfee, I've tried them all.

    I'll recommend AVG free edition as well. Norton/Mcafee are bloated to the point of unusable these days.
    ZoneAlarm free version of the firewall is also a great addition. It can take a little time to setup properly so all your programs work correctly, but it is worth it in the long run.

    I use avg and bitdefender free edition. Every now and then one catches something that the other doesn't. Just don't have both running at the same time.
