    1 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU PLAN TO UPGRADE YOUR RAM!   February 8, 2004

    I ran Nortons for a year with no trouble at all. I use Nortons system works, its been great, runs scan disks, fixes errors, scan viruses etc.....HOWEVER I upgraded my memory to 512mb of RAM, and guess what???? My nortons can no longer complete a virus scan on my pc. If i attempt to scan my PC, MY PC SHUTS OFFFFFFFFFF! Reboot city. So, i informed symantics aka nortons, and the only reply i got???? "YES WE ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, FOR SOME REASON NORTONS WONT ALLOW VIRUS SCAN IF YOU CARRY MORE THAN 512MB OF RAM." The original problem arouse back in June of 2003, this is now Feb. 2004, still no patch of fix to this. I find this the most rediculous thing ever! How can they charge me almost 100 bucks for something that i cant even use, but cant return either???? Its a sham. I will never ever ever buy A NORTON product again. I relied on the auto enabled virus detector to help shield me, and tho it did shield most everything, when i ran a STINGER (free virus/worm/trojan) scan last week, it detected 2 trojans, and a new worm....screw this! Now i need to find out what soft ware is the best OTHER than nortons. Damn shame too, i have never owned anything else in the 10 years ive owned a pc.

    Thier loss, my dollar goes else where!

    1 out of 5 stars I would rate the piece of junk zero stars!!!   September 26, 2003

    I have a Dell 8400 with XP Prof. SP1.

    I decided to upgrade from Norton AntiVirus 2002 to Norton Internect Security 2003 Prof. Ed. I have worked for over a month now with their customer support staff and it will not work. All kinds of errors and nothing works. I have heard this complaint from others. I'm going to send this piece of junk back to Semantec and tell them what they can do with it.

    The product is great...but...I purchased a couple copies of NAV2003 Pro, and about six copies of NAV2003. I only got one of my rebates on one of the products. Expect not to get the rebates


    5 out of 5 stars Now what is the problem?   August 6, 2003

    I don't get how anyone could have a problem with Norton products. I got my first laptop (first computer period) last year at Best Buy, the computer expert there recommended Norton Anti Virus 2002. He installed it on my laptop no problem, I took it home, although not knowing much of anything about computers managed to work it just fine. A few days ago I decided to purchase the Norton Anti Virus 2003 Professional Edition along with the Norton Personal Firewall from Best Buy online. Although I already purchased the products I decided to see how they rate on Amazon.com, since Norton has rated #1 with me I was suprised at the bad reviews.

    After reading them I was worried that I had made a mistake in my purchase, today my package came in the mail and since so many people have had problems installing I figured I would take it to Best Buy for installation. But being the impatient person I am I decided to just go ahead and do it myself, and I am glad I did! It was so easy to install a two year could do it! Which leaves me wondering about all these people who have had so many problems with it. I of course uninstalled Norton Anti virus 2002(although I didn't have to cause Norton could have done it for me)

    After the installation it downloaded the live updates and I ran a full system scan, everything works fine. Which leads me to the conclusion that a lot of you either haven't properly checked your system requirements before buying, your system is too old, or you are infected with a virus or problem that prevets you from installing it properly. My advice is to go to Best Buy and have them install it for you or teach you how.


    5 out of 5 stars Seems to work much better than McAfee   July 16, 2003

    I work in a large corprate invornment where viruses really go wild if they break loose.

    We had always used McAfee up untill a few months ago, and I though that did a pretty good job. Needless to say when the corprate mandate to switch to Symantec came down I was a bit dismayed.

    But not anymore. Symentec has been schooling McAfee ever since we installed it.

    1- It finds viruses on machines that HAD McAfee running. Seemingly totaly up to date McAfee let viruses get by on some systems. It does a very good job of catching new infections.

    2- We are using the corporate edition. The way that Symantec works to install, update, and monitor on a large number of machines works tons better and easier than McAfee did.

    3- It seems to work better on older machines without lagging out the system as much as McAfee did.

    4- It seems to monitor all network activity in and out of the machines without slowing down that netowork interaction as much as McAfee did.

    I recomend this product to anyone.
