When I signed up for broadband at home, I got Norton Internet Security

I occasionally, after a re-boot, get error messages that say I turned
off auto-protect. According to my searches, the "fix" recommended by

just say that this seems like a lot of work just to fix the problem.

I've been using MS's antivirus with no problems.

This is what we use at work too.
