Let it exprire. And then go with AVG. It is the best anti virus i have ever come across. Automatic daily updates with only kb files. Easily you can find its serial key till 2018 version. Overall a perfect combination to keep your PC secure.

If you're going to go the free route the real advantage would be with Microsofts Security Essentials. Microsoft pretty much knows the ins and outs of their own product and if you're going to go with a free solution might as well take theirs. Not to mention it's simple, effective and does the job more reliably than all other free solutions.
AVG has some issues that I don't agree with. One being that it seems to miss some of the more common bugs but catches the ones Norton always misses. The other issue I have is people think you can have more than one antivirus on a PC which is a big big big NO. 90% of the time when I fix a norton/avg problem is because both are on the same machine and it now boots slower than the time it takes to cook a turkey. That problem also is evident when norton has been uninstalled but did not remove all of its original functions with the uninstall and avg was installed afterwards. With that problem set aside I've never felt secure with the results or even the time it takes to scan with AVG.
By the way AVG has a free edition, no need for a key. If you're touting the idea of stealing please take that kind of advice elsewhere. In addition you didn't advise removing Norton when it expires which leads back to the biggest issue I have to contend with on machines that are slow and have BOTH on them. Finally, all AV update daily as it's an unofficial standard. If you want to get gritty about it ESET updates 3-6 times a day in some instances and the updates are just as miniscule.

That is theft and this post will be reported and should not be answered.
No antivirus will help you with the problems associated with stolen keys.
By the way AVG is crap, try uninstalling it on 10 machines.
The answer will become clear
