I need a differant antivirus on my computer(subscription is up with norton). Sould I look for something else, or just renew it? suggestions would be awsome

I am tired of this slow vista shit and want to upgrade my ram. I have a HP Pavilion dv6000. I know it has 2 slots. Does anybody make 2gig chips??? again suggestion of type brand and where to buy would be awsome

avg free is the way to go

AVG free is alright. It missed quite a few things that Norton/Trend Micro caught though. I'd say it's probably good for just basic protection.

who the fuck uses antivirus

AVG isn't resource heavy, and its free... i'm a fan.

AVG is the way to go. Doesnt slow down your computer like norton. My parents use AVG pro or whatever its called(the one u pay for) and its works ten times better than Norton.

If i am going to spend money on this comp. I want to spend it once, and hopefully make it somewhat fast. I could not get this with 2gigs. and i got it for pretty cheap and thats all i cared about right after my stuff stolen, i just needed new stuff. now trying to be on the internet, have I tunes open, and working in excel make this comp so SLOW, its not even funny.
