I agree. Most people have never heard of Kaspersky or Nod32 but have
head of Norton and McAfee for the reasons you give. Just try to get any
sort of meaningful support from Symantec or McAfee within a time frame
of days! Can't speak for Nod32, but in the case of Kaspersky, they are
quick to respond and the forum is fantastic - knowledgeable users and
Kaspersky employees alike make sure that you will get a rapid and
helpful response to any query - by rapid I mean within minutes, usually.
I don't work for Kaspersky and I have used many of the various AV
products (apart from Nod32). Go for Kaspersky, you won't regret it.
