No idea what you're talking about. I turned off user access control in the control panel with something like three clicks. Maybe you just don't know how to use Vista...
THe reason the default is set to 'too secure', as you like to call it, is that 95% of the users have no smurfing idea how to use a computer securely. It's like issuing cars to people without drivers licenses, and then compensating by putting in 50 airbags.
If you don't like the default user interface, then don't use it. You can still use the windows classic interface, not that it's too different anyway. I had no problems adjusting to Vista's slightly modified interface.
But anyway, on topic: I used Norton Antivirus a few years ago, and I didn't like it. Nowadays, I use AVG, though I never really need it, I haven't had a single infected file.
