Your Computer Will Die Without It

Advantages: Detects viruses prior to them infecting your computer, Live updates so you always have the latest protection
Disadvantages: None expect the initial cost

Symantec Norton Anti Virus 2001 is the most complete anti-virus programme around today. I recently installed this on my computer and was extremely impressed with the efficiency and presentation of the software. The software is presented on a CD and installation is very simple. Once completed you will then we able to utilize all of the various functions associated with the software, which will enable you to maintain your computer in a proper working ...

Live Updates ---------------- When you first install ...

...portion of the package. Norton AntiVirus works in two main ways, checking the files that are already on your computer, and checking the ones that are coming in via email. I'll start with the ones that are already on the computer. Norton checks, by default, only program and document file types, but you can easily enough set it to scan all files every single time they are used. Of course, this would significantly slow your system due to the extra ...
...a good idea to tell Norton to perform a full scanning of your system about once a week - just to make sure that everything is working properly, and no gremlins have crept into the system. On the email side of the package, you can set up all your email to be passed through Norton's proxy server, where it is scanned for any beasties that might be lurking in your emails. This is essential. Whereas in the old days you would be quite correct in thinking ...

Therefore email protection is becoming essential. Web-Protection – very similar to email protection, Norton guards ...

Norton AntiVirus Kills Malicious Code.

Advantages: Easy to use, customizable, very competent and thorough virus protection.
Disadvantages: Doesn't work in conjunction with some other antivirus softwares - but that's okay.

...done, my PC geek installed Norton Antivirus on the system and told me to be VERY, VERY sure that the LiveUpdate is enabled so that I'll have the most comprehensive virus protection on the market. Now that I've gone and told you how important it is to remember to use virus software, let me tell you exactly why I trust Symantec's program so much.

Norton has a very thorough and comprehensive virus library - every type of virus and just about all the various specific viruses are noted in the software so that the program can detect just about anything that might try to invade your system.

Internet access means plenty of freedom to browse and also to attract nasty little viruses and whacking great big ones as well.. So, I decided to go and buy one of the many latest AntiVirus programs.

Finally, decided it was Norton. Went to town and guess what –there was an offer on, so I bought Norton Anti Virus and Utilities for just ...

Tried and tested king of reliability

Advantages: easy to install, unobtrusive operation, customisable, regular updates
Disadvantages: -

I got Norton Antivirus free with my new motherboard which makes the fact that it is a top program even sweeter. I had been using InnoculateIT PE / eTrust and was perfectly satisfied with them, as they had proved to do their job, but the setup had always been pretty complicated, which was one of things I was not looking forward to with having to reinstall everything again following a migration to Win ME from 98SE and a partial upgrade – new motherboard, ...
...Expecting the process of installing Norton to be a tedious and time consuming one, I was pleasantly surprised how much easier it was to install. Naturally it was a concern that the version I had would have a very old pattern file and that it would therefore not perhaps find anything on my machine until I updated the pattern file. I was mistaken, as before it does scan your hard-drive(s) it does actually update the pattern file as well as the program. ...

Norton Antivirus software comes ready installed on most of the newer PC packages. It is an excellent anti virus programme which can screen for most of the known viruses which have been identified. It can be purchased separately if you do not have it already installed at fairly low cost. No pc should be without some form of virus protection software system.
