Do I need Norton 360 on my Mac? I've attempted to install it and get stuck on the disc access page....I'm not very savvy about all this but it appears that the Norton is installed but not completely? (I have the icon in my menu bar with a check and an icon in my dock)
I have noticed a slight slow down in some areas of browsing.
What do y'all think?? Thanks!
The best antivirus, cleaning app, and overall maintenance app for Mac OS is Mac OS itself. All you need to do with Mac OS to keep it secure and running well is to keep it up-to-date and do periodic (about 1x per week) restarts. Other than that, leave it alone. Adding third party antivirus, cleaning, security and other types of maintenance apps to Mac OS adds no additional level of security. The only thing these apps do is have the opposite affect users want. They make Mac OS slow, unstable, generate odd behavior and make Mac OS appear buggy.

I have never used any 3rd party apps like that. What I use: https://www.apple.com/macos/security/
