Any product with the name Norton is avoided by yours truly as if it carried the plague. The last product I purchased took me two days to remove it's tentacles from my registry.

I use Comcast but this is one offer they can keep (my personal opinion).

Recent versions of Norton AntiVirus are excellent - they are effective and very light on resources, and have scored highly in independent tests of antivirus programs.
Best wishes,

It is amazing how hard it is to change public perception when an organization changes it's product.

There is a lesson to be learned here for all organizations.

I'm sure you're correct, but once bitten - twice shy.

The replies above is why I had used the statement "Heads up" as those that have NOT used it for a while (such as me :scratch: ), may not be aware of the changes that have been made.
Thanks for the Positive input.

My input was anything but positive (except for my decision not to use Norton's). It may have been negative but it sure is heart felt. :blackteeth:
