So you picked the right AV program.  Ditto here.

Let me tell you though - I've seen thousands hit my office when one
person opened "annakornikova.jpg" and it got flooded through the
Exchange server.  The reason?  Because NAV (Norton) did NOT catch it
when it first came out.  They've been about 3 days late on every one
since!

(I work in IT - there's good and bad in everything).
