2008 is a program that provides virus protection
3/5

When it comes to Live Update, it should be faster than previous versions. It has been nothing but a nightmare for me. Since 2002, I have used NAV. Previous versions did not cause any problems. One odd thing about this one Run the Live Update manually and it indicates everything is fine. There is an icon in the tray, indicating NAV is not working As of date. Oh, ha ha! As a result, Symantec is aware of the situation. This issue is supposed to be fixed on their support site with the 'Fix' utility. The answer is yes. This sometimes happens. It is unwarranted to run this utility just to take the extra step. Here is the util once again. The solution fails to resolve the problem permanently. You will be forced to go through hoops in order to suggest a utility through live support. Every time I jump through the same hoops, I eventually get the I hope you found that helpful. Unless one has other more important tasks to complete, this is the best bang for the buck. Although I do not know whether my anti-virus is up to date, it is highly recommended. It is now.

I found Norton suitable for my needs after having problems with Microsoft and McAfee
5/5

Microsoft LiveCare was the first service I tried. In both installation and configuration, as well as operation, there are issues. It's nonsense! You should forget it! My next trial was I had a good first impression, nice functionality and usability, but the "razzmafrazzin thing" wouldn't register (and what good is antivirus protection if you can't update your system? I've been using Norton Antivirus 2008 for 2 months now, and everything is running smoothly. Norton has provided regular updates to my computer, and I have not experienced any degradation of service. I cannot comment on the quality of Norton's customer service due to the simple fact that I did not need their assistance. I installed the product, registered it with Norton, and haven't encountered any problems with it at all. The clear and simple answer is, you need antivirus protection. With Norton Antivirus, you'll have a great experience.

There's a deal to be had here
5/5

There is a real bargain to be found with this old version of Norton Antivirus. Despite the fact that I prefer the 2008 version on my Windows XP computers, I still prefer using the old 2009 version. The software offers you the option to upgrade to the latest version of Microsoft NAV if you so desire. Therefore, we're dealing with the real thing. Using the product key from the CD jacket, I am able to update my NAV 2008 subscription without downloading a bit of software. Even after you've installed it, it won't ask you to do it If you want to extend your subscription, simply purchase another one.

Is well suited for my needs The automatic features are a bit much
4/5

It was a great product and I never had any problems using it. Before I switched to Bitdefender, I used Norton Antivirus 2005. As a comparison, a $1 is the equivalent of 1 My rebate) made me update to the new product, and it's been working fine for me. If you are the kind of person who likes to know what's going on under the hood, it may be a little too automatic. The only thing that I had to do was set up port forwarding for MMOs, but other than that, I was only given a warning that a program was accessing the internet and a question mark as to what I wanted According to the recommendation, "always allow" seems to be the best policy. If Vista is installed, this warning will never appear They were stacked on top of each other. This means that a program may be waiting for Norton to allow it access to the Internet while you're waiting for it. I find this annoying, but it isn't a major issue. Despite the flaws in the new product, I am generally satisfied with it.

You do not need to buy this unless you want your computer to run slower! Since switching from McAffee antivirus protection to Norton this year, I have found I am not satisfied with either
3/5

It requires so much memory to run that it will lead to a dramatic slowdown of your computer. This program performs as expected, but it is incredibly slow and annoying. It stops viruses as well as I expected, but it makes everything take an unbearable amount of time. The program that I purchased for a year of protection I uninstalled and replaced it with another one. Our computer did not slow down as a result of Trend Micro.

There is an issue with the Norton Antivirus 2008 image
5/5

My company has used Norton Antivirus for three years and found it to be the best product on the market. My usual buying method is to wait until there is a discount, either online or at a local retailer. Sadly, the image shown on the Amazon site, when I placed my order, showed a message from the post office On the front cover, there is a discount. It disappointed me to find that my order never arrived in the mail. The discount is included in the price. In spite of that, I was happy to see that I had saved $10 over Norton's website price and my local retail store.

My system repeatedly crashed as a result of this error
3/5

Norton products including previous versions of Norton Anti-Virus have been a part of my daily life for over a decade An infectious disease. They have generally been satisfactory to me, so when my wife got a new computer (a Dell Vostro laptop with Windows Vista), I bought Norton Anti-Virus for it The year 2008 was hit by a virus. During its first few days, the PC ran reasonably well after I had successfully installed it. Thereafter, it became more and more unstable and frequently crashed. It gave my wife another week to cope with it before she decided to give Our system was installed with Webroot AntiVirus with AntiSpyware in place of Norton AntiVirus. This is the first time since then that the PC has not crashed. No plans to buy another Norton product exist in my head.

The information provided is insufficient
3/5

It was just fine for me except that my computer could not handle it. The description on Amazon could have been more concise, perhaps written with a lay person in mind. I am not a very skilled computer user. The instructions were not for a techie, so I would have known that it wouldn't work on my computer. My friend got it from me and I gave it to him.
