How is Norton a virus?

The only thing I know, virus like, that they do is they keep track of what each unique key does (How many times it's installed, uninstalled, hardware profiles on each machine, etc).

However, other programs do the same, such as Windows.


**edited to add:

Nearly all programs leave crap behind when they are uninstalled. Not only Norton.

The most problems I hear from folks with computers has to do with drivers. Never one particular big thing causing the issue, always something different can cause a computer's drivers to get out of sorts. That can be time consuming for me to straighten out. Antivirus programs, so far, haven't been too problematic for me.

I'm going to be buying the full AVG with the firewall later, so I can finally say "good riddance" to Norton.

Buy an Apple computer and say "good riddance" to Micro-penis-soft.

It makes your computer slower than molasses walking uphill in January. On crutches. (I forgot WTF that came from)


And Seldane, you use Nero 6? I'm still using 5.  :lol:

Kit,

ahhh, well, that's not a virus there, that's what I call a, "resource hog".

NIS likes to eat resources, however, it does have some benefit to all it devours. Also, if you have enough resources to go around, you probably won't even notice NIS is there, except during boot.

Though, like OS', photo programs, e-mail programs, etc, everyone has their own preference.

If you install Norton AFTER you've contracted endless amounts of computer VD, Norton will run like like a snail.  You install it before downloading a crap load of hentai and same-sex porn, you'll be golden.

Who needs a MAC virus when upgrading the OS is worse than every PC virus put together?

It came with my computer. Unless they downloaded gay hentai at the factory, I should be OK.
