Why does norton anti virus suck?

i had norton antivirus, here is what i've found out through my own little experiment.

-full system scans take roughly 1hr 10min-15min

-i've had norton antivirus for three years and it has found and removed 2 viruses, both common with low payloads, low stealth, and relatively harmless

-i had 41 running processes with norton antivirus.

-i dropped to 30 running processes when i un-installed it.

-i installed NOD32 and gained 1 single running process, opposed to norton's 11

-full system scan takes 15-21min!

-i found two trojan horses that norton missed, with the FREE TRIAL of NOD32!

This was ridiculous.

Norton has replaced AOL as "the virus you pay for".

I usually recommend Free-AVG or Avast! but Nod32 is another excellent product.

Symantec Corporate Edition is still cripple free antivirus (the parent company of Norton is Symantec) but its pricing and distribution structure keep it out of the hands of non technical people.
