Does anyone know any good anti-virus programs? I'm not having any issues with the game, it's just my laptop no longer has Norton do to internal errors, and I need a new one. Since everyone keeps discussing them on here for the game, I decided someone would come up with something good to use.
Preferably a cheaper system that's not Norton or MacAfee, and works good with laptops. (My screen froze and started flashing. Turns out it's Norton's fault.) So I need something that won't do that..?
Thanks. Sorry that it doesn't match what the forum's for; I have no where else to ask.

Hello, Huskeh! Some of my antivirus recommendations would include
Avast
,
Trend Micro
,
Kaspersky
, and
Bitdefender
. Be sure to check the system requirements to see if a certain program will run on your computer.
Along with a running antivirus program, it's a wise idea to have a anti-malware program for anything your antivirus misses. A very popular, reliable program is
MalwareBytes
. They do have a free version, however they also offer a premium version.

Heh, I was going to suggest MalwareBytes as well, although I don't use it myself, (and my home computers can't even get viruses, because I'm running a Chromebook, but my dad's runs Norton) but I know some people who do, and works fine for them!

A few of my recommendations are Kaspersky and Webroot, but the anti-malware program, MalwareBytes (as mentioned above) has a history of doing well, also. I'm not exactly sure how much each program costs, but before you consider downloading one, make sure they will run on your computer. Good luck finding a program that works for you. c:

If you want something free that doesn't impact performance and try to get you to buy something:
If you're using Vista/Win7 just get Microsoft Security Essentials, it's entirely free and does a good enough job.
If you're on Win8 just enable Windows Defender, it's good enough.
If you want something free that does a better job than Windows:
Free editions of Avast or AVG

My recommendation is Kaspersky, and it is the one I use. If you want to run it, you need to buy its CD. It stays active on your computer for a whole year so when it has expired you can renew it.
It scans everything on your computer, including your USB that you plug in. It blocks any viruses immediately but usually you are notified to update some stuff.

Thanks everyone, I've ended up with just installing Windows Defender.
Mods may now lock, thanks again~!
