Do I need another security program, i.e., Norton, with Firefox? The person who installed Firefox for me (without consulting me) told me that I no longer needed another security program - I had Norton at the time. I just read something on your website which says that Firefox works well with other anti-virus software programs already installed in my computer. Should I renew Norton or install another anti-virus program to supplement Firefox?
