Anyone got an idea which port norton anti virus uses? As my router is currently blocking it, and i cant update my virus definitions.

nvm, found my problem

Renewing Subscription back to top
September 1, 2003. To continue getting new virus definitions, you have to pay Symantec every year. O.K. Twice recently I was setting up computers for other people. Both machines came with NAV 2003 pre-installed and each also had a three month subscription. Both machines were being given to non-technical users so I wanted to renew the subscription ahead of time to save them the inevitable confusion.

What is the CPU load and memory footprint of 'Avast!' like?
I'm willing to try anything like this if it seems to offer an improvement on what I have.

cpu load is minimal, and same for memory footprint.

All in all, the Antivirus of Win!

Does it actually work though?

As in, have you tested it; up against Mcafee or whatever?

Yes its been tested, and it picks up exactly the same things that the Mcafee online scanner thing frinds.
