NOD 32 is the best....well if u want to install other anti-viruses get the X64 version from the website if available

  2. Symantec Corporate Edition 10 and avobe
  3. AVG 7.1 Professional
  4. avast! Antivirus and Windows x64 Edition

Avast is free and fast and consumes less resources. But Norton is the best.
You can call the Symantec people and ask whether they have a 64-bit OS
compatible Norton anitvirus. I think , definitely they will have one.

norton is totally a resource hogger. it will be much better if u prefer some other av than that.
