 Rating:  - Don't Buy It, It's worse than the virusesI bought the 2005 version for my wife and we've had nothing but problems. Most recently used PC Move when we got a new PC and I didn't think to get rid of this. Now I can't get it off the new machine and it's causing a problem exiting Word. (Documented on Microsoft's site). This is absolute junk. Rating: - They'll be selling SnoCones in hell before I buy a new ver.I've been frustrated with this product so long, that the anger which would have inspried at least an entertaining review has left me. About me. Back in the day, the mid-nineties, I worked as a technical support rep for a PC manufacturer, and then a REALLY BIG software company. Does that mean my opinion is necessarily expert?

Installing took minutes....Updating over broadband took 3 reboots and several updates that had been released since the release 2 years ago (expected). Then only Virus definitions..and I was done.

Tried the other freeware including Avast and maybe ... Read More Rating: - Stick with the older NAVsBoth my wife and I purchased this software near the end of 2004. At first, many of the "features" were just an annoyance, and I assumed that I would gain experience with them and move on. That never happened. While online one day, Internet Security mysteriously disabled itself. I immediately got off the internet, but was unable to reactivate the program. After trying everything I could think of, including unistalling and reinstalling the program, I contacted Symantec. They advised, via ... Read More Rating: - Effective, but VERY bulkyWhile it has a rather effective firewall, and comes with Norton Antivirus (which I'm actually rather fond of), the Security Suite has significantly slowed down my system. I'm currently using a Sony Vaio S-150 (which I bought at the end of this past August), and it takes about five minutes just to boot the system - in fact, I've taken to just hibernating, rather than shutting down completely. The Antivirus is good, but "Internet Security" just isn't worth it. |
