My PC is a Celeron 1.70 GHz with 112 MB RAM, and I run Windows XP SP1. My antivirus protection is Symantec´s Norton Antivirus 2004 version 10.1.0.13. I use the built-in Firewall from Windows XP, and run Spybot S&D as well as Adaware SE. But I have a bad habit ( :o ) of using P2P programs such as Kazaa Lite and Piolet (in oredr to run Piolet on Windows XP - they require the user to turn off the Windows XP Firewall).
Where am I trying to get at?
I think Norton slows down the PC too much and I still get adware/ malware in my system and Norton won´t remove things like Blazefind or Mybar, or Dealhelp
I heard of a new antivirus which is meant to be very light on the system: NOD32 :!:
What should I do to protect myself and not slow down my PC too much????
