I currently have Norton Internet Security 2006 on my computer but the subscription expires in about 5 days.

I'm thinking of changing to McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006/7 but I wondered if I should upgrade to NIS 2007, instead.

I want to stop using NIS 2006 because it's supposed to be a drain on system resources.

"... because it's supposed to be a drain on system resources."

I don't know about "supposed to" but, sure, it's resource heavy - although I doubt if Mcaffee would be an improvement.

Kaspersky is pretty decent

Bit slow on this but I would also recommend Kaspersky - not least because they have excellent technical support.
