Why Pay Money for Anti-Virus Software?
Look, you can download any number of free antivirus programs online. Take AVG Free, used by 70 million people and 5 stars from Cnet. Nice and quick. Throw on Zone Alarm for your firewall and you have inconspicious programs that don't take over your computer the way norton does.
It took me 45 minutes to unintall this very program and I have a fast computer. Don't throw your money away on inferior software just because they have a picture of a smiling middle-aged woman on their cover. Legally download something for free and go buy a nice bottle of wine instead.

Not much to complain about
I bought this after reading a number of good reviews in computer magazines, although the negative reviews on Amazon made me a little nervous. It's been over a month now, and I really can't complain about the program. It does everything it was advertised to do, including antivirus, software firewall, and spyware blocker, and it does so relatively unobtrusively. There hasn't been a noticeable hit on resources, although startup is a little slower as the program checks for updates on the internet.
My old firewall - Zonealarm Pro - worked well, but it was very annoying with the constant popups asking about permissions for specific programs. Norton NIS did that in the beginning also, but it went away once I made a change in the preferences to not show these messages.
Overall, you could probably get by with a collection of free programs to do the same thing that Norton NIS does (e.g. AVG antivirus, Zonealarm basic, Spybot), but the convenience of having a single program makes up for the cost.

Good Product
I like Norton Internet Security because it performs as expected. I heard too many bad things about Norton 360 so I went with this one and it's a recommended product. Ive had it for well over a month now and no problems yet. It keeps my internet and PC safe.

works well even with Vista 64
like the product....wish it was a little more editable but it is effective and it works well with other programs unlike some of the other major players and works well on a Vista 64 based system.
