A free package that scores highly, beating almost all its big-name competition. It’s just a shame it’s such a nag

I've installed this on an older xp system and once I'd turned of the nagging pop up things have been going swimmingly. It has a low on impact on system resources I've programed it to update 3 times a day so updates don't take to long from the slow server. Not scanning emails dosn't worry me as I use gmail and I believe they scan mail for me and the machine is not running in admin mode so exe's are able to fire up.
a great anti virus for my mum or yours

A powerful and capable suite with some excellent features, although it isn’t the easiest to use, nor the cheapest around.

We've been impressed with Norton 360 - security for those who want something simple but effective. We're also impressed with the changes in Norton Internet Security 2009. So how does Norton 360 version 3.0 stack up?
