 Would never touch a Symantec Product Again July 18, 2008
6 out of 10 found this review helpful
The product is an absolute joke. And the Technical Support / Customer Service at Symantec is even worse.
1.) Upon Starting the PC I am greeted with multiple pop-ups - Virus Definitions Out of Date and Virus Scan Out of Date etc etc. On entering the software everything is ok.....
2.) The system seems to hang on the "one button check up" during the Norton Cleanup scan and then after 30 minutes will find files to clean up. Example found 763 then cleaned. Immediately ran again and found 1091, then cleaned (again). Immediately ran again and found 2111.
3.) Have used Symantec Chat on 4 occasions and each time they tell me that it is sorted. When I start the computer again, the problems start again.
On the 4th occasion i spent over 1 hour being passed from person to person, each as seemingly useless as the other.
I would never consider using this again even if backed into a corner and threatened with extreme torture.
Hope this helps....
PS. I run a very new and highly specced PC with Vista (which is also fraught with problems) (however Symantec do assure us that the software is fully compatible with VISTA....

Originally Symantec allowed me to download 2008 free when i was using 2007 on Windows XP and i liked what i saw.
The new programme takes complete control of your computer to such an extent that to some it may be overpowering but along with McAfee,Norton is one of the best sellers in Virus Software.
If you are accustomed to using 2007 then you will certainly like 2008 as it is set out logically similarly to 2007.
Norton 2008 looks in certain ways very similar to the previous 2007 and operates in a very similar way but the entire programme has been vastly improved appearence wise and there are fewer boxes to tick but the new software automatically asks you do you want to run Live Update or allow this programme to run.
Some people will find the intrusion of all these boxes opening up every now and then annoying but the information these boxes ask really simplifies the security of your internet browsing.
I have only one complaint about 2008 and that is its the only operating system for Windows Vista.
Previously i had been happily using an almost new 2007 Norton on Xp with still over two hundered days of subscription to go but my Xp became sluggish and tempremental so wisely or foolishly i do not know i formatted my entire computers Hard Drive and installed Vista Premium.
Vista is a dream to use when you get the hang of it and the Aero interface is really usefull.There are so many background enhancements for the overall performance and appearence of Vista that im pleased i took the plunge but come on Symantec allow 2007 to work on it aswell.
Having visited my local branch of Staples recently i noticed they were selling 2008 for a very decent 24.95 including a free Systems Doctor disc aswell.
This disc was intended for the future when my 2007 subscription expired but lo and behold 2007 is only compatible with Xp and willnot work on Vista so thankfully i had a new 2008 disc waiting and im very pleased with the goods so far.
IF YOU ARE USING 2007 YOU WILL CERTAINLY ENJOY THE PLEASURES OF USING 2008.
