Premium Review Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2000: Aaargghh Symantec! (645 words)

Apparently, "Norton AntiVirus from Symantec is the No. 1 anti-virus software in the world! It provides clear, easy-to-understand instructions on how to proceed when a virus is detected, reducing fear and uncertainty". I beg to differ! I used Norton antivirus for about 5 months, before I could bear using it any longer! ...  Read the complete review

On buying Norton two year ago following my last computers disastrous crash (seven months of college work lost - lost - forever lost and no hard copies) I reluctantly paid for security. Happily reluctantly safe with no major attacks, these additions seemed an unjustified expense. Then, connected to Brunel University's LAN, a little ...  Read the complete review

I have had Norton antivirus now for almost a year without any problems. Sure it has been worth it due to the piles of viruses that it has caught saving my computer many a time from guarenteed death. When I saw the price in the shop I decided to go for it, it might have cost more than expected but I decided to go for a well known one ...  Read the complete review

I am not, I repeat not a fan of Norton Anti Virus. As a corporate desision last year my boss decided that it would be best, even against his system administrators advice, that Norton was the way to go as "Its the best known, so it must be the best!", Hmmmm. So we get and install enough copies to cover all the machines ...  Read the complete review

Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2000: Protect yourself... ....by staying away from it! (102 words)
by - written on 21/05/01
Rating:

Norton Antivirus in my experience is a piece of waste-some-money software. The whole thing is the shambles. The only thing it does is flash up annoying messages about reviving and breathing life into dead programs when you can sort them out with a quick Ctl-Alt-Del. As well, it's the new viruses that get us. Sure, you can use ...  Read the complete review

I received NAV 2000 with my new PC, and it is a very easy product to use. From the time that you first install it, you are allowed a 1 year subscription to the symantec server, where you download the virus definitions that you use to protect your PC. The interface is child's play, it tells you : How old you virus definitions are, ...  Read the complete review

Norton Anti Virus by Symantec is a very reliable piece of software. I have used it for a number of years prefering it over those produced by other companies. Why? I have found this particular product easy to use and easy to update. The interface is excellent and it does not cause any conflicts with other software on my system. I need ...  Read the complete review

Here's a fact - EVERYONE needs a good virus scanner/killer. If you're paranoid like me, then you'll also see the need for such things as personal firewalls and encryption keys, but they aren't really as indispensable as a good virus scanner. To me, having had bitter experiences with other so-called virus checkers, ...  Read the complete review

I wasnt really bothered about protecting my computer before, untill the fateful day when a friend and i were messing about, and both our computers crashed. Seemed that someone had put what's known as a trojan's horse programme onto our hard-drives, and hacked us. Now, with Norton, i found this out. The great thing about Norton ...  Read the complete review

by - written on 02/12/00 (Useful, 15 readings)

Norton AntiVirus was one of the first of its kind because of the ability to update its virus database. When you download something off the internet Norton will automatically scan it to make sure there aren't any bugs in it. The scan will do the drives you select and do them when you want it to do them (obviously). That scan can take a long ...  Read the complete review

I got my first virus today. This was a real shock to me, because surely viruses only happen to other people, don't they? Well, that's what I thought. Norton Antivirus came pre-installed on my PC, and I have updated it since and run a couple of system checks but, y'know, they were all fine so... I began to take it for granted, ...  Read the complete review

I have used Norton since March '99 and to be honest with you, I like it and find it to be very useful; I have not had any major problems with it and no viruses. It works with everything I have and I can get free updates for one year, although I don’t think I am looking forward to paying for the updates next March The ...  Read the complete review

The Norton Antivirus package is one of the best known and most trusted pieces of software.The software is easy to install and very easy to use.

Norton anti virus is a must or something similar, you need to protect your PC against all known viruses before it attacks your computer. It doesn’t take a genius to work out it is better to spend £25 on Norton’s anti virus than buy a new machine for £1200.

I cannot believe there are still people who have no protection whatsoever on their pcs. For a small price you can protect your pc and know you will not lose vital files or indeed your pc to a virus. We got Norton on special offer and have been really pleased with the results, they even inform you when new free updates are available, which take ...  Read the complete review

This package is good on features and internet update facitities but is not compatable with anything else. If you try to install some CD writing software, it won't work with Norton installed. The same with some websites, games, utilities - you name it, Norton doesn't like it. The graphics and userinterface are so that even a ...  Read the complete review

Norton antivirus 2000 (NAV2K from now on) is an excellent product. It installs quickly and simply to your PC, scans you for viruses and then stops anything nasty getting onto your computer. Once installed, you can set it to scan files every time you boot up (although this does add a few seconds to the time it takes your computer to boot ...  Read the complete review

This is a great product, I would really recommend this to anybody. It's so simple to use and tells you when you need to update your virus definitions. Just a few clicks on the mouse and you're done, not like some other products that don't remind you to update, and take an age to do so when you do remember. When I had ...  Read the complete review
