   All Peter Norton has done for 10+ years is collect fat royalty checks for Norton product sales. It has been a long time since he actually held a position at Symantec!

   @iMe2: Best Anti-Virus ever. I will never look back.

   @Platypi: And buy lots of wine and art.

   Norton’s/Symantec Av is nothing more than malware in itself. You need to (request from Symantec) a tool to COMPLETELY remove any trace of their software. Remove doesn’t remove it all. I really hate bundleware (new PCs have this Norton’s/Symantec junk on it all the time).

   Other Antivirus I prefer: Avast, Avira, NOD32… all free without the overhead or 50% system hit.

   i don’t know what you guys are talking about. Symantec Endpoint Protection is really good. Not trolling either, it has some really good enterprise management features and centralized administration.

   @Squeezer99: Symantec doesnt make any good software. It might work just fine but its so incredibly bloated. Anytime you install a piece of their software you will see a 20-30% drop in boot and shutdown times and varying levels of performance degradation on your computer.

   Its not worth it considering you can get the same or better protection without the performance death with free and/or open source apps.

   I had that book. I may even still have it somewhere, in a box in the garage.

   For Anti-Virus: avast! is great for Windows.

   I don’t use AV software since AVG switched to version 8. That was some bloatware. Never tried the others (Seems Kapersky has too many false positives a while back). Maybe I’ll check NOD32.

   I do use virtualization (VMWare type things) combined with un-common sense. I go where I want and do what I please. Email and attachments are in a VM or virtual software package/layer. If i get a virus, I just rest the VM or virtual package.

    Symantec’s corporate edition antivirus has just gotten worse and worse recently. I knew the home editions were crap, now they are ruining the corporate editions also, which I believe is their real cash cow.

    We are switching out to Kapersky shortly.

    Why isn’t there any place to find an actual mailing address for Symantec so that a letter of complaint can be sent by certified mail if we want proof that someone actually received our letter?

    Dear Bethesda,

    Here is Symantecs address:
    Symantec
    20330 Stevens Creek Blvd
    Cupertino, CA 95014
    If no reply from them, do what I did. Contact your states Attorney General’s Office, Dept of Consumer Protection/Antitrust Bureau and they will send Symantec a letter, as they did with me! Good Luck!

    Since I’ve worked for my company, we’ve spent over $3,000 on symantec licensing upgrades. In January it was $1,800 and enpoint does not even catch most stuff. I still have people w viruses, trojans, adware, malware and I have to install tools like malwarebytes ( Free ) to remove it all because symantec does not detect or remove any of it…

    currently evaluating sunbelt softwares vipre antivirus / antispyware. They’re offering an unbeatable deal and their vipre ranks in the top 10 while norton does not.
