Re: Norton Internet Security 2010

I purchased the Internet Security 2010 3 user for £23.49 from PC World yesterday http://www.pcworld.co.uk/martprd/sto...&category_oid=

I find it a lot better than previous version and I find it a lot lighter on resources.

Better price at Amazon, but it's not about the cost...

What did you use before?

Re: Norton Internet Security 2010

The last version of Norton Internet Security 2009 was considered to be very good so hopefully 2010 will be the same.

Re: Norton Internet Security 2010

v2009 was great, a major improvement not just in design but on system resources. v2010 got even better. Its lightler on resources than most other suites such as ZoneAlarm, AVG, Kaspersky etc...

Is possibly the spawn of the devil himself. Wouldn't touch it. Complete and utter RAM hog. I will only use NOD32, bundled together with Comodo firewall.

It's completely different to older versions of Norton from my experience and judging by reviews of 2009/2010. I guess when Norton was a ram hog in the old days the mud sticks and every version is labelled as that now.

I've ran some test on Norton. Hate it, doesn't pickup anything. Where as NOD32 does.

Re: Norton Internet Security 2010

I used to use Eset Smart Security until it wouldn't let me stream to the Xbox and the fact that the latest version isn't that great according to tests, I now use the latest beta of Avast! with Comodo firewall.

Re: Norton Internet Security 2010

I use kaspersky internet security - at the end of the day I think what's more important is that people use SOMETHING.

I have seen people on here just not bother with an anti virus or firewall....
