I need help to choose between these three products.
I need a solid protection without too much popup. My wife use too this computer and she don't want to have to do with antimalware (!)
My computer use i5-6500 CPUand 16 go ram - It's 6 years old.
I'm not a power user but I can follow the difficulties with malware.
Really Idon't know wich one to choose.

Thank you very much for your help.

I need a solid protection without too much popup.
In which I'd recommend: BitDefender Total Security, since it's solid, easy to handle, no interaction protection.

If I had to choose between the three you gave: Norton

My choice would be such because Norton with SONAR is very smart and does not require configuration at all (default is great). ESET isn't as great in default, and IMO Kaspersky requires Application Control to be configured, and once configured, it's very user-dependant.

First, why believe in me!!! What can I tell you that is different from another user around... I use Kaspersky for almost 10 years, with a story of success, no malware or virus, etc.
Am I a regular user? No, I torrent a lot, I use cracks, I use programs that I don't know to make desktop personalisation, I use programs and scripts to make windows do things that are not supposed to do, I go to porno sites, etc.
So, in conclusion, if Kaspersky keeps me safe it'll keep safe most of the users.
In conclusion, I recommend Kaspersky on first, F-secure in second. You can buy a license for 1 year for Kaspersky Internet Security for 10€, so it's affordable too.
Please don't forget to use a good password manager and don't store passwords in your browser or txt.

Sorry for my English.

I suggest you read that thread to properly set KIS taking into account that you have a relatively old computer. I did that for mine, and my computer is fast. It was sluggish before tweaking.
