Recent problems with antivirus programmes

things are bad... l dont touch any program that automatically adds a minute of startup/shutdown time to my comp...

norton was great 3 or 4 years back but now its just crappy bloatware with bucket loads of crap we dont need...

I don't remember it ever being great, and that's going back to win95.

Considering the reliability of free (and slim) alternatives like clamwin or avg, it's no wonder that Symantec are getting desperate.
 
i wouldn't touch norton with a bargepole even if it was free,it's one of only two antivirus programmes ive come across that has actually made hardware such as a floppy drive or memory malfunction - oh the other programme was macafee ,i wonder how many people had already guessed that.
norton are typical of those companies who like to blow their own trumpet,usually a crap product that relies upon hype from numpties such as those who work in places like pc world to con people in to buying it.
same in its workings,because it looks big and gets in your face a lot people think it must be good,try one of the good free ones,they run nice and quite in the background,dont hog half your memory, just see how much quicker your pc runs
 
I tried Nortons and moved on to Nod32 never looked back and wouldnt have Nortons even if it was free.
 
it was good once upon a time but like l said theres too much bloat now and not enough virus program to sacrifice system performance for.
