WTF was that..
seriously, there must be 1000's of people who must have approved this before it was made... WTF.
and who uses Norton anyways? it's junk. slows down your computer like a mother...
if you're going to buy Anti virus/internet security... use AVG. it's free. and if you're going to buy it.. get AVG pro. it's way lighter and runs smoother...
Nortan/mcaffe <--sp? is a joke.

I got to be honest I got norton internet security 2009, it's better then avg, avast or any other anti-virus I used before. It's A LOT faster, uses very little ram. IMO, unless you tried the latest version don't say anything bad about norton. I do not work for them, but I have and opened mind about new software. They really re-vamped it, it's worth a try.

AVG for life. I have not been formatting any PCs for a long time since I got all of them to run AVG...
Deutschland products ftfw. Even if it's free. Plus, it randomly pulls out very unprofessionally designed ads to tell you to buy the commercial version which is good for a laugh always.

The worst is when ads pop up that actually look like software. One time I was at my buddies place and his wife started freaking out cuz she was on facebook and her virus scanner told her she had a virus. Lucky she didnt click on anything and asked me what was up.

I suggest all you norton haters to download norton internet security 2009 and try it for 3 months, its FAST!, better then kaspersky internet security 2009 and MUCH better then then avg pro.
Norton 09 is the best internet security I've used to date.
I like kaspersky cause it was fast but norton is FASTER, try it! Install time, start ups, and even updates!
Norton has the new update thing which has small files rather then a large lump.
Trust me I hated norton before, but try it 1st......
