Which Norton Solution Is Right For Me?
Customer Reviews:
Avg. Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0
finally, a speedy Norton product!:
I had used Norton Antivirus and Norton Internet Security for many years (2003, 2004, 2005, etc.), but each new version seemed to get slower and slower. Finally I gave up and switched to ZoneLabs' ZoneAlarm security suite for a couple years. ZoneAlarm gave me much better performance for a couple versions, until lately -- when it began slowing down my system, hogging resources, and prompting me for things it shouldn't have been. So halfway through my current ZoneAlarm subscription, I decided I needed to dump... more info
HUGE improvement over Norton Internet Security 2008:
I wrote in my review of Norton Internet Security 2008 that I used the product - but despised it. The hit to my system's resources was just too great, and I turned much of it off as a result. The 2009 version is MUCH faster - to the point where I am leaving all options enabled. The hit to the system appears to be minimal. The user interface is simpler and less confusing also. Big improvements all around. Be aware that the engines underlying Internet Security 2009 and Norton 360 are reported to be... more info
A Big improvement over previous versions.:
I had quit using Norton for the last few of years. I needed a new Internet Security Suite and Norton 2009 was rated at or near the top of all the ratings I checked. Norton did especially well with independent lab tests. (There are so many companies trying to look independent, so it takes some effort to find truly independent tests.)
Norton found a "Trojan" my old Suite did Not find (Kaspersky). It also Scans much faster.
Still tough on crime but easier on the users:
I do computer training and light technical work for small offices and home users. I used to recommend Norton, but in recent years it had caused so many problems, from slowing down the machine to requiring daunting re-installs, that I advised many clients to just use a free anti-virus and the built-in firewalls and hope for the best. I was encouraged to try again based on good reviews and have not been disappointed. It is fast and does its work in the background without calling attention to itself. Norton... more info
