Norton Internet Security 2008 up to 3 Users [OLD VERSION] Review (continued)

Good Product; Better than NOD32
I tried one year of NOD32 and although it is fast, it does not detect viruses very well. Norton Internet Security has been great at detecting viruses. Bad thing is that it slows down your system quite a bit.

Buyer Beware!
I should have known better based on my very bad experience with Norton security about five years ago, but I needed a firewall and thought spyware protection would be a good thing to have. I already run Macafee anti-virus and had no desire to replace what was clearly working without any problems.
I got a good deal on NIS2008 (via rebates) and thought what the heck. The first problem was that there was no custom install. You got everything, period. The install made it most of the way through and hung. Subsequent attempts to do anything to modify the install or configuration hung. Attempts to run live update hung. Attempts to uninstall, using the uninstall option (from Start/Programs/Norton ...) hung. I located the Norton Removal Tool and downloaded it. I ran it and it just hung. By "hung" I mean the processing started, producing a new Window if appropriate, and then just sat there doing nothing for as long as I cared to let it continue.
I attempted to contact Norton support via the web chat option. The chat window opened and ... you guessed it ... hung.
This piece of garbage is like a massive virus that defies all attempts at removing it. I've wasted hours trying to do so with no results so far. My final hope is the Norton NIS user forum.
I'll certainly never again allow anything from Symantec to be placed on my system.

Purchased Norton Internet Security 2008 for 3 users. Good since we have more than 3 computers. Easy to load on XL harder to on Vista.

Great software, great support..
I purchased NIS 2008 after reading some reviews and found that it runs good on my system without taking up unnecessary resources or bogging it down. Install was straight-forward although the program itself has a few quirks and minor setbacks. Ie. setting a custom scan with the antivirus program takes some figuring out and a full system scan isn't run unless you go into this option and ask for it.
Otherwise, I am happy with the program so far and haven't found any real setbacks.
