Dude he said he would like to stay with Norton, why don't you read before you post?

I read the post. I still think it's unwise. Didn't i say not to doubt me???

Norton is a memory hogger, Plus its pain in the a**. You would be better off getting NOD32 or AVG Antivirus instead. But if you want to renew your Norton then do it if you want but that's not my choice.

Please don't tell me not to get norton, as I have an account with them and a discount voucher and to tell you the truth can't be botherend to change - as I have said before they have served me well since 1998.
So, which one? +rep to good responses
Thanks

If it works for you keep doing what your doing.

Yes, even AVG is better than Norton. I wish more people would realize that Norton and McAfee are pure crap now.

odds are if he is asking on this forum that his computer has more than enough power to run Norton.
Plus norton 360 is not just for a firwall and antivirus

Thanks for your responses, I think I'll upgrade to Norton 360 V2. I really wish people on this site would stop flaming Norton. It works for me (and I have tried nearly all of them) Get over it.
Thanks again for the intelligent responses

If you really want a norton/symantec protection... go buy a corporate version of norton.

Symantec Antivirus 10... while it may be hefty and pretty expensive, it is worth it. No more subscriptions, renewals, etc. Updates whenever you like, up to 24 times a day, really no limit at all.

Tons of more features, and what not.

I use Avast personally though.

AVG alone uses about 600MBs....

Dam guys..he clearly asks for no one to tell him to change from norton to anything else as he has been a long time user and it obviously works for him, as it does with many other people, but may not work so well for others. Yes we all know there are better AV out there but each to their own..lets not flame Norton..

If your going to get Norton then get Norton Internet Security 2008... its norton's best product, light on system resorces compared to previous versions
