So I have an option of using Norton Internet Security 2011 or Symantec Endpoint Protection which is provided to me free through my school as an unmanaged client. Are they both good? Which one do you recommend?

Both are good and hard to recommend one over the other. In the past I have used older revisions and if anything the Norton was a little bit heavier on system resources.

both choices are resource hogs and will slow down your system but if it's free then it's free. demo them both (one at a time) and decide for yourself.
