For some reason, Norton Antispyware, Norton Antivirus, and Norton Personal Firewall are not installing on my computer. Whenever I reach the AT%26amp;T Yahoo! Software Center, the only software that gets installed is the Online Protection itself and when I click the Online Protection, it says that the Antispyware, Antivirus, and Personal Firewall, are "Not Installed". If anyone knows how I can properly install Online Protection, please reply.
Online Protection is good, Antivirus, Antispy, and Personal Firewall doesn't work?
I have AT%26amp;T but I will not use their norton here is what I suggest
PCTools products do get good reviews. The good thing is they have free versions of their products. They work great. Spyware Doctor from the Google pack is a must. I highly recommend it. I bought Webroots Spysweeper and spyware doctor finds stuff spysweeper does not. Having both is a perfect combo and I recommend
running two anti-spyware products.

You can do an online scan for viruses and spyware for free from the major vendors. Some of these require Internet Explorer to run

Its good to run two anti-spywares even if some extra resources are taken.
SuperAntiSpyware does an excellent job. AVG's full version gets great reviews.

Anti-Spyware for a cost.
Personally I bought Webroot's Spysweeper, their product is great and well worth the money. Watch Best Buy ads because sometimes it goes on sale for $10 to $15.

There are free anti-virus scanners availble. They work well. I like AVG and PCTools anti-viruses the best of the free anti-virus programs.
If you are not willing to spend money it is good to have some kind of anti-virus software

This is my recommendation for anti-virus. Free are good, but they are not as accurate as the top paid anti-virus software
