if you want my opinion get rid of Norton, its the biggest pile of wank the world has ever known. personally i always use AVG but Avast is also supposed to be very good :thumbs:

also, AVG should work as long as you download the latest version, had afew problems updating on Vista from an older version i had on my pen drive
you can find the latest version here http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5

Sorry I should have said used in conjunction with something else. Not on it's own. I wouldn't trust any Microsoft product to solely guard my PC. :lol:

Use Windows defender, not sure if it's built into Vista?

Also try AVG, should work with Vista
