Norton Security Sytem .In general is it any good?
7 Answers
I recently joined Bt Broadband & the internet security package they gave with it was Norton Security System 2006.I don't have complaints with it just now but i've heard mixed reviews about Norton in general.
Has anyone had any problems with Norton? or is there a slightly better internet security system in your opinion out there that is free to download.
I was recently told that in some cases when you do a full system scan Norton will sometimes miss things?.Would this be right?.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Norton is pretty much universally known by tech people as being terrible. Not only is it a far way behind other, better products (Kaspersky, for instance), but it also slows your system down a fair bit.
This is a good example:

Personally I use AVG Free and have never had any trouble with it. I combine it with ad-aware personal and kerio personal firewall (both free, too), and I've yet to ever have a virus or other attack on this computer.
