I know someone who did that

Said person ended up F discing his computer to get rid of the two virus' that Norton let through.

I don't rate Norton, much happier with McAfee even through it takes ages on start up.

Norton sucks. McAfee is superior, but I had soem trouble with it. I now use FreeAV because its free and works brilliantly.

You just need to get/buy the buisiness solution.

Symantec Corporate Edition Anti Virus

thats the way to go!

Tks

p.d. the date trick only worksif you keep the date between OK date but don't put it before install or don't change it if you have had the message "need to but" etc.

because then many programs block...

Buy the full version of AVG youll be amazed at what it finds that the free version lets through !!

We use mcafee here at work -ford-umpteen thousand pcs but it takes alot of resources. I find avg free will find stuff that mcafee passes. I have not tried the pay version of avg but will from the prievious post.
Norton I will not touch with a 10 foot pole. It has destroyed most every pc I have ever seen it on. I used to use sygate firewall which was great untill norten bought them and then cancled the suport and updates for them so their product would sell. Outpost is great for that.
