Do you like Norton Antivirus??

antivirus has become essential for net surfers and i don't think there would be anyone surfing net without an antivirus. since there are many free versions of antivirus it makes little sense to pay for it. some very popular ones are AVG, Avast, Avira. i am using Avira and am very much satisfied with its performance. earlier i was using AVG and Avast but both of them had some problems protecting my computer so i switched to Avira. in my case it was my experience that led me to use Avira (and ofcourse the fact that it is free). it also had very good reviews from various testers. also since i am satisfied with my antivirus i don't think i will go in to purchase another one.

I have used Norton when I bought my first computer. But soon I realized that my computer was running extremely slow and it was solely because of Norton. Although I changed its settings, I could not stop the thousands of alerts from coming up on my desktop not the software from slowing down my computer. I hate it. Although it secures my computer but I am not ready to accept the slowness of my machine. There are other softwares like AVG or KASPERSKY who provide similar security but does not slow down the computer so much.

Well I was using Norton for a long time and it has served me well but now I have a new antivirus called AVG.I think Norton is good but I dont think it can keep up with the current trend of virus.However I will persist with AVG AND TRY TO KEEP UP WITH UPDATE .

I actually hate nortons. I use nod32 instead. It is faster and is able to make your computer very secure.

I don't think Norton is the best one antivirus softwate,becuase it sometimes deletes some important files.Now I use McAee,I think it is good,I used Dr.web not long ago,but I used the portable one,so I changed it into McAee.

Norton is very good, but expensive. If you are willing to pay the money every year to renew your subscription go for it. But I highly recommend AVG Free 9.0. It works wonders. Check it out at free.avg.com.

I used it a very long time and right now I am using a much cheaper like Avira because they have it for free and they could detect virus the same rate as the licensed ones. Sometimes I find Norton to be too restrictive and once you installed it in a pc it will stick with your registry that when you uninstall it there are many entries that are left behind which causes problems with the OS at times. I have an experience of that when I bought a new laptop with Norton that was pre-installed with the laptop. It has a 60 days trial period when it expired I decided not to choose them as AV and uninstalled it but then my OS started becoming slower and I have to find a norton remover from their site to really clean the uninstallation.

I tried different antiviruses but I found that Norton is the best, It make the system a bit slow, but virus will be 10 miles away from my system. NOrton is the best but ya it's costly.

This is what I use now! I use Norton 360 and I am very happy with it. I used to use a free version AVG free but decided to give that up. I haven't had any problems with my Norton antivirus product and I scan my system once per week and it is constantly updating itself which I like and feel is very important. I know some people don't like Norton but I personally haven't experienced any problems with it whatsoever. As long as it is working for me then I will always recommend Norton products. Andrew

I don't like Norton Antivirus at all. even i have used it for some time, but i prefer some other free antivirus software. problem is that norton makes my PC slower. i can't bear it any more.

Hi, I like Norton Anti virus and they have over the time improved their product to consume less resources and work efficiently. But I am already using a product named Comodo Internet Security which is very great in detecting virus and malware and it has also got a very great firewall which has proved itself better than many commercial firewalls in different tests. Along with this great software, I am using Spyware Terminator which has integrated clamwin antivirus database to it's real time scanner and detects spyware and virus. But the main purpose I use it is because it detects and reports every activity that is going on in my system for which I did not previously give privileges and holds them till give it a go. It has also got an install mode when it never raises an alarm when we are installing a new application. These are the great tools I am using.

I've known norton for a while now but chose pccillin (atleast when I still had an AV). Pccillin (I think they call it Trend Micro Internet Security now) was the choice of the school I came from and so I used it as well. It was pretty good with the protection and didn't come at a very high price. It is also recommended by some PC magazines so I think it is better than others. Free AV is usually behind a little but norton isn't really my type. I heard symantec is know moving into utilities than security so I don't think their company is investing much in Norton AV too.

Yes I like because it will protect my computer from the incoming pop-up viruses in the internet. Its better to protect my pc than spend too much for the repair of my pc.

before Norton 2009, i can't give any compliments to the Norton Antivirus. because it takes much more RAM and con't runs smoothly. but now i use the Norton, and i bought a 3-PC key for 2-year's usage. i think from Norton 2009 the innner framworks have greatly improved. And what's most important is that it responds very rapidly and the newest version- that is the Norton 2010-has a much better interface. Of course, the ability of preventing and cleaning virus is great and perfect. i like it and enjoy it.

in reality i don't lik norton anti-virus and its products...you must consider also tat considering norton is one of the oldest and most used around the world as security software many viruses are written and developed on norton products and updating too...so in reality i like other security softwares as avg and nod too...i think they are good protect to stay protected when you are online may be in some cases even kaspersky cna be ok!!

I was able to use norton for quite a while. But I shifted to another one since I find Norton quite heavy and it slows my computer. It typically good but I wanted something light yet effective. I have tried many other anti virus but now, I am using, avira. I do find it very good and fast.

rjvb I hate Norton as it let a virus into my computer that did a lot of damage and took some doing to get it out. I have AVG9 now and it is free and it is very good, I had the 8 and the 7 in other years and have never had any trouble with virus at all ever. i really love my AVG9

I have norton antivirus. It came with a 3 month trial supscrition with my labtop computer. I have stayed subscribed to it eversince. I did not know aobout nortion ativirs protection untill I got my laptop, I realy did not know aobut anoyone easle and decied it would be best to say with them. I have been happy with norton eversice. but in the future I may decied to change if I fined something better.

To be frank i would say a big no. when i bought a pc i used norton as my virus scanner . it gave me a lot of problems when i tried to start windows or shut down my pc it took a lot of time which made me to loose my patience and it also made my system slow when running an application and then i decided to uninstall it, it took a lot of time for uninstallation and im currently using avg so far good progress and my system goes well.

When I got my first pc I used Norton but I was not satisfied with its performance as it seemed vey complex and also slowed down my pc. Now I have a high end pc but I had ignorned Norton and switched to AVG, Kaspersky, quickheal and so on but none of them satisfied me. Suddenly I had installed Norton again after formatting my pc and what a miracle. Its not so slow but I am satisfied. Moreover, no viruses!!! I had dreamed about this that viruses cannot infilerate in my pc but failed everytime. After using Norton for past 6 months I am quite satisfied as I don't not to run here and there to free my harmed pc from viruses which was a mandatory for me almost every month before using Norton in my new PC
