O.P. Antivirus
I'm thinking to change my antivirus, but before I do that I need your little help.

I am currenty using Norton Antivirus 2004, and I'm really pleased with that.
I have never had any problem, and everything works great.
But the problem is, it has many processes running in the background.
Processes: CCAPP.exe, CCEVTMGR.exe, CCSETMGR.exe, NAVAPSVC.exe, NPROTECT.exe, SAVSCAN.exe, synlcsvc.exe and SymWSC.exe
So, there are at least 8 NAV processes if I listed them all correctly.

Maybe it's true that some people say that Norton slows your computers down. Well, it doesn't slow my computer down, but it sure eats many resources.

I just want to know the number of processes other antivirus software have.
It'll be great if you can tell me total mem usage of the antivirus, especially McAfee Antivirus.
If you are using NAV 2006, can you tell me the total mem usage too? Just for the comparison.
When I was writing this thread, NAV used about 38k of RAM on my computer.

Thanks.

Edit:
I should've made myself clear :p
I do not want free antivirus, simply because I want to get reliable one.
I don't want to get a problem and say, "That's a free one, what do you expect?" :p
