Average Rating:
Rating: - 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.
Rating: - Faster and Use Less Memory?
Recent advertisements from Symmentec states that Norton Internet Security 2008 runs faster and uses less memory than 9 different competitors. But please check out the actual test study by PassMark software: Boot time for NIS 2008 is at 87% that of Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 (100%), and scan time is at 91% that of Panda Internet Security 2008 (100%). Also, the study DOES NOT measure CPU and memory usage during local file scanning, which explains why so many people complain about the speed of this software. All this data points against Symmentec's recent advertisement claims in terms of practicality. ... Read More

Rating: - Emmensely Improved
I was so upset with NIS 2007 I did not think I would buy it again. Calls to Symantec were of no help. NIS 07 constantly failed me in two critical ways. AUTO PROTECT would turn off and not turn back on even having run live update or manually turning it on. Auto protect required me to restart my PC's(2 with XP) & Laptop (with XP) over and over again until Auto protect would function. The other problem was live update would work (update) intermittently! The NIS 2008 is functioning flawlessly so far on 2 PC's (with XP) & 2 Laptops (One has XP the other Vista (disappointing operating system). I have had ... Read More
Rating: - Buy only if your computer was purchased the same year as the Norton version
I agree with the other reviews that this version is a resource hog. I have a Toshiba Satellite purchased in 2003 and I had no problems with Norton 2003 even though others complained that IT was a resource hog. I suspect what is going on here, much with Operating Systems and programs in general is that computers have gotten so much faster, programmers no longer bother to write "tight" code. Having said that, I see no real downside in actual use, the computer runs everything pretty much as fast as it did. It just takes about five minutes to boot up instead of one.
It appears to be a very robust program ... Read More
