1) If I have Norton Antivirus, and it will exprie soon,
if I renew it, do they mail me something, do I have to wait for something in the mail or is it automatic once I give them my credit card?
If you have renewed Norton Anti Virus, how does the renewal process work?
2) In addition, if I do not renew it, is my PC automatically vulnerable to viruses?
3) Do you have a favorite anti virus program, you would advise me on?
Thanks so much,
Country

Don't renew it. If you've ever given them your credit card number in the past, report the card stolen and get a new number before they charge you again.

I second this. I heard good reviews about MSE and on top of that, it's free.

Getting a bit technical here - but having an anti-virus software makes you LESS vulnerable. But it doesn't completely remove the vulnerability. There really isn't 100% security. Just as seat belts and air bags makes you safer... but it will never completely remove the threat of injury.
I would also agree with the above posters on using MSE.....
As for the automatic updates, I gave them my credit card number, and, they automatically debit my account every year for the thing.
Course, my Wife 'thinks' I need an anti-virus, so, she insists that all our computers are to be protected and it cost me a small fortune when it comes time to renew, sheesh!

Ridiculous statement. I've been buying/renewing Norton Internet Security since they fixed it in 2009 and they don't automatically renew and charge you. You have to go out to your account and tell them to do it.

Stop distributing scare tactic messages.
I know plenty of people who've been charge for another year without actively renewing for that year.
