I have Norton Security Suite and haven't had any issues, but I also use Chrome.  No IE for me.

I agree with your son.  I think Norton used to be good, then it got all bloaty.  McAfee was NEVER good.

I actually find that I do very well with free versions of anti-virus software, one anti-malware, such as Malwarebytes, and I use the Windows Firewall along with the hardware firewall that is on my router.   Because one is hardware and the other is software they don't conflict.

I think one thing is that I just don't like any of the 'security suite' (combination anti-virus and firewall, etc) types of software I've seen.   They get in the way and sometimes are way more problematic than helpful.
