One of the Best
I ordered Norton off of Amazon and I got it in like a week or so.I installed it and ever since then I've never had any infections or complications. My computer runs smoothly and almost as fast as when I bought it newly despite all the programs stored on my PC. It's really amazing. There's also a really nifty feature called Live Update. This feature downloads the latest updates like every 2 or 5 hours because new types of viruses are being released faster than you can say "virus" so it updates the capability of Norton to detect them. It's really sweet. It also doesn't leave cluttered trash all over your desktop like some other types. There's just one icon on the desktop which gives you access to all the services it offers and or Vista users, it's on the sidebar too. There's also a small icon on the toolbar that turns red to indicate a problem. Simply click on it and it takes you straight to it, telling you what to do all along. Green means everything is ok. It also scans your computer in the background every week silently to make sure that there are no hidden viruses. Really, there are so many features in this product that I could describe but all I'm gonna say is that this is definitely one of the best. I've not regretted this product one bit and trust me you won't.

Internet Security 2008
Bought this product to replace an earlier ver on three computers. Was new and installed and works as advertised. Have never had any problems with any Symantec item that was not corrected by them. I'm not big on Indian call centers but was helped by Symantec's call center there satisfactorily.

Do not trust this software to protect your computer!
A previous version of this software came with Vista PC I purchased for my father over a year ago. When I renewed this product I performed the recommended upgrade to 2008 Internet Security (1 user) and made sure that it was working properly.
I checked on his computer a few months later to find this software had disabled auto-protect features without warning. I couldn't enable these features and there was nothing to indicate what the problem was. I clicked on the Fix It button and after a long scan of the computer it was determined I needed to contact support without any indication of what the problem is. It costs over $9.00 to contact support by phone (perhaps this is a scam they're running -- break the software and charge people to fix it?), or you can download a 4MB program to perform a live chat that installs and never runs. You can also send them email, but I have no information regarding the problem.
I'm done with Norton and I'm moving to another solution. I'm a software engineer and work on a lot of different computers. I've tried most antivirus products at one time or another and by today's standards for professional software there is no excuse for this type of problem.

The Devil You Know
Norton computer products are sort of the devil you know. You stick with them because you fear the other anti-virus/internet protectors will be worse. Norton does an acceptable, not great job, and I also back it up with other (free) anti-cookie and anti-spyware products.
There's always some glitch to installing Norton products--one try is never enough, even if you're very computer literate.
My other comment is that if you have a previous Norton subscription, don't install your new product until the very last day, because they'll never give you even a day's credit for your previous subscription, even though they start nagging you to renew at least a month in advance. You'd drop a magazine subscription that did that!

Although I have had this product for a few weeks, I have only just installed it. It seems to be working well and was easy to install.
