This advice would have been accurate a few years ago, but now it's flipped. Mcafee is crap, Norton is great. Mcafee will slow down your computer considerably, sometimes making it unusable. I stopped using it earlier this year. My brother is still using it (his subscription runs out in a month and he's switching) and the weekly scans cripple his computer for over 36 hours -- ridiculous. My wife still runs it at work -- just last week she got a mass email from Mcafee saying "Oops, we accidentally pushed out an update that broke some people's networking and you might need to do some stuff to fix it."
Norton has become one of the best again -- I have it installed and I don't even notice it.
