Yes I have Comcast internet and use the Norton that they offer free of charge. I really like it. It has notified me of several threats that it has stopped and so far I am impressed with the overall performance. In years past Norton had a reputation for using a lot of resources. My new Toshiba i5 handles it very well and I have noticed no problems with it slowing down my computer. I used to use AVG Free, with a Zone Alarm firewall, but after getting infected twice in one year I decided that it wasn't what I wanted. No antivirus program is perfect since there is no way for any of them to be 100% up to date as far as defintions go. Too many new threats find their way to the internet every day. I highly recommend Malwarebytes, also. In the past it caught threats that AVG missed. Update it and run at least once a week.
