Norton is just Curry's/PC World brand that's why they push selling it in their stores try to convince you it's the best

Everytime my Pc needs re-installed it comes up with all the crap that was on it when bought,
Norton cos it was activated is still there so after a google I found a installer that I think wipes it of the system 
I put AVG on the pc and sorted out the settings on that cos it also has a webpage scanner

Which the best antivirus? Kaspersky or avast? I am using avast pro licenced till 2012.
Mrjulius, is adobe photoshop cs4 better? I am using v7.0. Thinking to upgrade to cs5. How much is ram consumption?

Thank you mrjulius for quick reply. I have only 1 GB ram- thinking to change to 4 GB. but not now. I think i'll stick with v7.0 for now.

Luckchris, you have tempted me to use cs5 but my ram is stopping me.  I dont want to experience slowness in my pc.
I know the previous day, we had a good discussion over antivirus. Can any one state which is the best antivirus among 'Avast internet security' and 'Kaspersky internet security 2011' in terms of protection at the same time less ram consumption?? Or you can suggest any other as well.

Kaspersky is the best all round anti-virus suite. It has the best detection rate, and removal success, whilst not consuming a large amount of RAM.
I wouldn't use CS5 with less than 3-4GB ram
