Alot of people seem to really hate Norton products, but I've used their AV software for a very long time and don't understand why people are so against it. It doesn't actually seem to do much ever and that to me is actually a good thing. Only very rarely I get a taskbar notification that it has blocked something, but other than that it's almost completely "silent".
That being said, I try to remain open to trying new things and am very curious to know what other people use. I'd like to know what various software people use in addition to what plugins like ad blockers and script blockers, etc. Mostly I'd like to hear from gamers because I'm starting to wonder if perhaps Norton AV has been interfering with me having the best possible gaming experiences all these years. I always seem to have some kind of performance issues, but until just recently, they were so small and subtle that they never killed the experience for me. If anything, just small stutters now and again, maybe an audio crackle here and there, things like that. Lately though on my latest build, almost every game I play seems to stutter alot and I'm thinking my choice of AV could be part of the problem.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.
