Looks like it’s an All-in-One program. But only buy it if you need all the features. If you just need to get rid of one virus, head to Download.com and download AVG Virus Scanner Free Edition. Its free. And it gets rid of viruses. Try that first.
Depending on your system stats, it usually is NOT a good idea to install this.
Norton and others are system hogs (although meant well) can hurt more then help.
Try what I use…..
Anti – Virus :
Anti-Virus’ are a personal preference type.
You know what you want it to do and when, so you
want to look for what you want the AV to do specifically.
Some people like using FREE AV’s which are okay for
the price, which they’re some good AV’s out there
that are free, some are bad as well.
I guess it comes down to what program that you like
the best and which one has the most pretty colors
that entertain your eyes.
AVAST
"Free antivirus – avast! 4 Home Edition
avast! 4 Home Edition is a full-featured antivirus
package designed exclusively for home users and
non-commercial use. The company offers the Home
Edition free of charge, since, in our opinion, it
is possible to avoid global virus spreading by
efficient prevention; however, many users are not
able to or do not want to pay for antivirus software.
This page below will show you the most important
features of this program".

AVG
Is Free and is the more popular for those that need
something that can scan their computer at that time.
However, it uses resources like Norton and McAfee and
some others.
Norton
Is NOT FREE although they’ve been out for decades and
have a Trial Version. Also to remove their AV software,
you have to have their removal tool to remove it all
the way. Some newer systems have Norton installed
and every time that you uninstall it and reboot, it
wants to reinstall. Here is the link to remove
Norton: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2005033108162039
McAfee
Is NOT FREE although they have been out for decades
and have a Trial Version
Norton 360, also has Norton Anti-Virus in it. Its a complete package and will remove the viruses, trojans and also act as a firewall.
The answer in short is Yes. Remember to keep it updated once ever 2-3 days. Or keep auto update on.
