Re: Norton Security (Beta version)

I used Norton for a long, long time and eventually got tired of its problems. There are other alternatives out there, some free, some pay and most of them are much less bloated and work as well, though granted there are problems here and there. Having used Norton and now freeware, I suggest looking further.

Notebook? I have a note book also. I have a Dell 17" laptop and a Asus 10" netbook. I have kept up with security software and will say again, there are better applications than Norton. I ran Norton on both computers for 1 week to check it out and after that week, off to better service/performance.

Been running it since 2007 and never had a problem with my computer. Built it myself, upgraded it all myself, etc, etc. That's not to say Norton is only for super tech people, it's actually not. It's made for the mainstream, but with todays computers and Norton's streamlined software, it's well worth the price if you don't want the hassle of the "free" anti-virus software.

As for the android app, I'll check it out when it's finalized and android becomes more mainstream.

Remember all you Norton haters, it's 2010. Not 2005. Technology and software change.

Yes, this thread actually made me post my very first post on here. lol
