Norton AntiVirus (NAV) is the flagship product of Symantec Corporation and one of the most popular anti-virus programs. Since its "birth" in 1990, over 100 million people all over the world use it. Early versions of Norton AntiVirus were integrated and took much from Central Point Anti-Virus (CPAV), which was aquired by Symantec in 1994, CPAV also was integrated into the Microsoft Anti-Virus utility. The current version is Norton Antivirus 2005.

Despite its widespread adoption, it carries a reputation within the computer enthusiast community as slow and inefficient. It is also notorious for being almost impossible to completely uninstall.
