Hi!

Can anyone suggest me as to which Antivirus software is the best for Windows XP Professional? It should also have a powerful firewall as the internet usage is high.

Thanks.

Try using Kapersky Personal Suite ( *www.kaspersky.com ) or Bit Defender Pro Plus 8 ( *www.bitdefender.com ). They are good. If you want free, go for Avast ( *www.avast.com ) or Free AV ( *www.freeav.com )

How about Norton Internet 2005? How is it? Do you suggest it?

If you have 2GB ram then may be yes! Else go in for one of the above that have been suggested.

Norton just sucks up system resources for no reason.

Or you could go in for Quickheal Internet Security which is also quite good. They are competing with norton and all, and are infect doing well!
