    Trend Micro gets my vote.

    Norton is overhead heavy. McAffee is slow to update.

    Trend is easy on the resources and as soon as a new threat is discovered they are updating your system to cover it.

    A lot of the answers to this question will be based on personal preference and not real facts. Fortunately for you most of the security software (McAfee, Symantec, Zone Alarm, etc.) companies will allow you to download trial versions of their software (fully functional) so you can install them and come up with your own personal preference. Just install one at a time and use it until it expires, or until you are tired of it, and move on to the next one. There are also some free products out there. Just Google anti virus.
