To be honest I actually like both. But then again on both there are modules that I don't like.

Norton runs perfectly on the second laptop. ESET also runs fine but I do have a memory problem since the laptop doesn't have much memory (it is only a mid end laptop).

RE: Norton Vs Eset
Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Out of them I would have to pick both, but I see that the poll is only one so I will have to go with ESET.

RE: Norton Vs Eset
For me its like comparing "RED Apples" to "Green Apples" both are good so its too hard to vote but i would go with ESET since its detection rate is a bit higher than Norton

Don't know about detection rates, but on an older PC Norton would make it completely unusable whereas ESET ran fine.

Not true, for the past 2 years of trying Norton on and off I never experienced slowdowns at all and I have some computers that only run on either 1.5 GB RAM or 2GB of RAM usually the ones I had that had 1.5 GB of RAM had a cheap/old CPU and never affected speeds at all.

Norton has been so light while ESET I did run into slight Memory spikes but they weren't bad. I like both ESET and Norton but out of these two I'll go with Norton because like I said its been really light, From my tests and tests I seen Norton has had a better detection rate.
I'm a big gamer and I gotta find a Light suite but with good detection rates.
So, I think Symantec wins this one.
