Now, however, their software is almost impossible to completely remove once installed, buggy, slow, and puts crapware in your system. I wouldn't use norton anything, as most norton products also include constant advertisement for other norton products.

I was using AVG with no issues until they got popup-happy with their reminder that you're using the freeware version and you should really buy the paid version. Avast is getting there, but they're nowhere near as bad, hence my choice of Avast over AVG.
I have not had any of the above issues in over 6 years. So far Norton has been great for me, it's unfortunate that many have had issues with them but I have not so am not complaining.
