I am just checking out Firefox. If I switch, do they totally cover my back ? Can I get rid of super annoying Norton 360?

If I switch to Firefox, do I need any more security? My Norton 360 expires in 22 days.

Hello!

Firefox is a browser and is not infallible. It is always a good idea to have antivirus software to protect your system. If cost is an issue, there are a number of reputable free alternatives to Norton such as Avast! or AVG.

You may be using IE8 and so I infer you may be using a Windows computer, if so and it is genuine software would you qualify for MS Security Essentials, which I understand is normally free, and includes AV.
