Review: I suggest everyone to sue Norton 2004 for what they did to their PC's.

My friend is gonna sue Norton 2004 big time for what Norton 2004 did to his PC. he had to reformat his whole system and lost his work and time. he is very anger at Norton.

Im so glad I never touch Norton 2004.

Summary: Nortons antivirus 2004
Review: I bought Nortons 2004 and it says that i have to enter the activation code but when i type it in the next button is not highlighted so i cannot activate it ......it also comes up with an error and i have uninstalled previous version and other programs and shut down and restarted many times .....all i get is problems ......now i use another online scanner but i am just off to the store to try to explain this to get my money back ...wish me luck ( i have used nortons successfully for several years so i understand that we all have different setups and something may be clashing with this new version ... i have also done a search on the error and nortons admit that there is a problem but as yet they havent got an answer )

Summary: Don't Buy this Product!!!
Review: I purchased this product as part of a sales promotion along with TaxCut, thinking I was getting a good deal. Was I ever wrong! Within a day of putting this product on my computer, my computer crashed and had to be reformatted. The problem was it fought with previous versions of anti-virus programs (even though I thought I had completely removed these programs from my computer, remnants of them remained.) According to tech people I know in a major corporation, this happens often. In our department, in the last week, 4 other people also experienced this problem. Don't buy this product!

Summary: What is wrong with you people?
Review: I can run this on a 450mhz machine NO PROBLEM with NO ERRORS and it catches everything. I also have AD-AWARE to get rid of Spyware and AVG (its free) just in case Norton misses anything, but Norton usually gets everything.

I mean people who can not use this software should take a computer class or something. I installed the thing in ten minutes. I takes up massive resources and time when running, but you can still run it in the background but you are supposed to run it when not doing anything at all!

I would suspect that the negative reviews here are from the competition. This product works without a problem. If you have a problem than I seriously recommended spending money on learning how to use a computer first. My 6 year old could install it.

Summary: Norton Internet Security is a major problem
Review: I've always been a fan of Norton Antivirus and Norton SystemWorks. After purchasing and installing Norton Internet Security, I can't even get Norton Antivirus to run!!!!!
Free installation help takes 3-4 days by email. Now Norton Antivirus won't even install after hours of cleaning files and registry keys from Norton tech support documents. You have to pay to get live installation help. What a rip!!!!

Summary: Cannot find words to describe it
Review: The makers of this crippled software should be hurt...hurt bad. Even on the best system the computer is brought to a crawl. Want a fast startup and shutdown? Not with norton. It cannot even fix viruses! It is however good at droning that my computer has 2 dangerous files that should be quarantined [but which for some reason aren't quarantined...]. But that is not the worst; it seems that norton is now learning from windows xp in using an activation key... Your software is not even worth an activation key! I have 4 computers in the house, all of which were subjected to the torture of Norton. Soon after installing it I had to reformat one; and when I was finished installing Norton and it was in the process of activating it...What's this? I can't use it more than 4-5 times? without having to make a call to their nonresponsive center? And the number one annoyance: the "your program has been paused for a virus scan of the file ...." [which of course pauses the program killing the whole point of broadband- a 90 mb download goes 4 min and 5 min I have to wait for the scan- 9 instead of 4 min]. Take note, pressing stop scan has no effect. This prorgram is worse than any virus your computer could possibly contract.

One question: What happened to the versatlity ease and smoothness of Norton 2000?

Summary: sucked in
Review: product started to work great like other versions but soon started to go haywire. tech support was no help as each step of the repair lead to another problem. load after reload failed to cure what ails it. stick with the older versions this one is worse than junk. other virus programs picked up viruses not detected. they are fully aware of the problem but continue to sell the product even though they know it will fail shortly after 60 days

Summary: What a let down!
Review: I upgraded from NAV & PFW 2003 - Computer became sluggish and would "pause" every once and while. Boot time was increased.
Internet connect speed was DECREASED by 32%!!!!!
NAV & PFW 2003 are some of the finest programs I have ever used-
How can Symantec put out a 2004 product like this?
Don't they beta test?? I bought this productline because of my trust of the NORTON name.
Emailed their support(twice) - not even an answer back.
Things have really changed - this used to be a first class product and operation.
I guess the 2003 products are going to be the last Norton/Symantec products I buy.

Summary: No problems
Review: I've been using nortons antivirus 2004 for a for about a week now and havn't had any problems running. I up graded from 2003and My computer hasn't slowed down at all. I have a 1.3 athlon4 512sdram notebook. I know another person running it on there pen 4 notbook and they havn't had anyproblems at all either.
It is worth buying or upgrading

Summary: No problems so far...
Review: I've used Norton Sytem Works 2003 and had problems. I had to
uninstall. Unstalling systems works is a bugger. Because you
have to make sure that you remove all traces of it. Like cleaning
it out of the registry. But now I just use Norton Antivirus.
It's less complicated and it runs very well. No problems as of
yet. I use it in conjuction with AD Aware, and Spy Bot search
and destroy. It doesn't seem to slow down my PC, Alienware a51
p4 1024 ram. And to those who complain about Nortons functions
running in the backround. You do know that you can go into the
options and shut down any unnecessary function you don't want running in the backround. ie...live update, and automated virus
scanning.
