Go to a local computer shop they can help you buy one and will tell you how long it lasts I have kaspersky it's a really good anti virus program I've never hadda problem with it and my friend who's a tech help guy recommended it. I think it lasts a year or just over and it cost mabie 40ish bucks depending where you live

Firstly uninstall Norton as it really isn't all that good.

Now, why buy antivirus when AVG does an excellent job and best of all is FREE.

Thanks friend for information... but as you say AVG is free,I want to know for how many days it is free once I have download it and how can I get its updates

It is completely and utterly FREE.
NO expiration at all.
The updates are regular and it offers good protection.

That being said no single anti virus is perfect so use of an online scanner occasionally is advised.
