The problem is that the virus programs themselves are a problem. They frequently annoy you by announcing updates and bragging about what they are doing. Plus there are problems with low initial prices and high renewal rates.

Windows 8 is secure by default, with an anti-virus that is unnoticeable. However, even that can cause people problems because users will feel a need to read various opinion articles pro and con on whether the free anti-virus is good (I believe it is). Even Microsoft's documentation on this question is confusing, perhaps because of anti-trust fears over what happens if they destroy the anti-virus industry.

Windows 7 also has free Microsoft anti-virus, but not by default, and Microsoft calls it a different name. To me, figuring this stuff out is part of my computer hobby, but to someone who wants an easy to use consumer product rather than a puzzle, Apple must be easier.
