Hi Mazda,

I used Norton Internet Security some years ago and it was quite good, but when I got a new PC and tried to install my existing version of NIS I got a message telling me it was out of date and that I should upgrade to the latest version.

But instead of taking me to an NIS page it took me to Norton 360, and led me to believe that this was the replacement for NIS.

It cost a lot more, of course, and I discovered after installing it that it caused all sorts of problems by suppressing parts of perfectly legitimate pages.

I also later discovered that there was, in fact, a later version of NIS which they could have taken me to.

But, of course, Norton 360 was more expensive so they just took me there and implied that this was the replacement for NIS.

Because they misled me, and because 360 created all sorts of problems on perfectly legitimate pages, I will not use a Norton product again.

(A perfect example of how to lose a customer by breaking their trust :) )

Cheers,

Martin.

Antivirus which is free, but recently heard about Microsoft Security Essentials, which is also free. If i will plan to change my current protection to paid service then i will consider NOD32.
