Pros: Live Update, compatible with Windows ME, runs by itself, inexpensive and could save you a lot of money from virus cleaning Cons: none I have found yet
Norton Antivirus 2000 was an excellent product with one minor problem, it didn't work very well with the new Windows Millenium edition operating system. Recently Symantec released Norton Antivirus 2001, which has all the updates and virus definitions...
Pros: Free trial and updates; Real-time scanning and email protection; Scan logs; Quarantine; Scheduling. Cons: LiveUpdate doesn't always work properly; Can be pricey, depending on where you buy it from.
AntiVirus software is a must-have for all computers because a single virus can wreak your computer left to right. A good AntiVirus software is just as essential. Norton AntiVirus is one such good AntiVirus program; McAfee is another. At this time,...
Pros: Superior Virus Protection; only two contenders even come close Cons: Not for use with Windows XP; support is bare-bones at best
If you have a computer, you need virus protection software. If you're looking for virus protection, Norton Anti-Virus 2001 is the program to buy. That statement isn't my opinion-- well, 95% of it isn't. And if it were my opinion, you'd be a...
Pros: LiveUpdate, easy-to-use, protects your e-mail, slaughtered that virus Cons: None that I know of
15 days ago, I woke up one morning, desperately wanting to write an epinion. After I casually bounced down to our basement, the room where our computer is stored, my eyes riveted upon a letter. A letter which never entitled me to compose...
Pros: protect your computer from a virus Cons: none
One night after I got home from work I turned on my computer to find that it had went crazy. I had all of these icons listed that had been deleted months ago from the main page. My computer was not acting right at all. I immediately panicked. So I...
Pros: It works! Live Update keeps everything up-to-date Cons: Some viruses require manual removal
This is hands down the BEST ant-virus program money can buy! In today’s world, anti-virus protection is a necessity. It’s not uncommon for me to get several viruses as email attachments a week and Norton has caught them every single time.
Pros: EVERYTHING, THIS BABY IS THE GREATEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD Cons: NONE EXCEPT I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT THIS SO MUCH EARLIER
I had been meaning to write this review quite a few months ago, but never got around to it. What can I say I'm the worlds biggest procrastinator, but I'm thinking of getting help for it.… someday ("Hi my name is James." "Hi James." "And I've been meaning...
Pros: It works as asvertised Cons: does not support USB Zip & Jaz Drives
WHY I USE A ANTIVIRUS PROGRAM:
I have used a PC for more than 10 years without ever getting a virus. This created a false since of security that resulted in me rarely running a virus detection program. After putting my wife’s small...
Pros: Comprehensive, live updates, overall good protection. Cons: May slow down your system.
The best anti-virus software for the average user.
Symantec has done an excellent job with their anti-virus software. The version I use is the 2001 v.7.0 for windows. I run this on a p4 1.6 with 256 mb of SDRAM and it does not slow my...
Pros: Automatic Updates, Fullproof Protection Against Virusses.. Cons: Virus updates expire after 1 year of use
I've been a user of computers for many years now, and I have had many encounters with virusses, worms, etc.. I've also have been privilaged enough to try many of the other antivirus software out there. I've noticed several differeces between this product...
Pros: Live Update Of Virus Info, Intense Scanning Of Files. Cons: Bugs Cause Live Update to Fail.
Ive been using virus scanners for quiet a few years, Ive used everything from AVP to Thunderbyte, Mcafee and Norton.
Ive even tried out some no name programs.
After using them all, Mcafee and Norton are the top picks, and they are really...
This is a review of version 2.5 Norton Antivirus 2001. I've been a long time fan of Norton's security products, so this review may be a bit biased in that regard.
Norton Antivirus is needed by virtually anyone (see: everyone) who surfs the...
Pros: Free and frequent virus definition updates; excellent detection Cons: Some viruses need manual removal
OK, firstly, you should know that NA won't always automatically remove viruses from your system. "What good is that!?" I hear you say. Well, let me clarify. NA can (and will) remove viruses from your system but sometimes you will be called upon to do...
Pros: excellent protection against viruses and trojan horses Cons: live update sometimes has connection problems
I am a 3 year veteran of using Norton AntiVirus. I have used version 5.0, NAV 2000 and now NAV 2001. I have to say that Symantec is like a fine wine, they are improving their product with age. NAV 2001 came with my new computer, but I still think it's...
Pros: Easy to use, free updates, a reliable scanner Cons: None that I've found
Let me preface this by saying that I am a network administrator. Every day I receive at least 3 or 4 e-mails rejected by our server because there is a virus attached. These are mostly e-mails sent out without the senders knowledge or permission. Yet...
Pros: Live updates (both for the product and the virus definitions), very stable Cons: None so far
I bought an IBM Thinkpad a little less than a year ago. IBM laptops (at least the ones sold mainly to businesses) come with almost no preloaded software. So here I was with my first ever computer and was feeling vulnerable to attacks from viruses. I...
Norton Anti-Virus 2001 was a natural choice after the success and familiarity with other Norton products. With so many virus alerts on the internet, it is extremely important to have a reliable and up-to-date protection at all times.
I used to be a staunch user and believer of McAfee's VirusScan. That is till I found out the wonderful feature that is included in Norton AntiVirus 2001: Automatic LiveUpdate.
Which of the two, McAfee or Norton, is better at scanning...
Pros: Easy to use, free updates, a reliable scanner Cons: None that I've found
Let me preface this by saying that I am a network administrator. Every day I receive at least 3 or 4 e-mails rejected by our server because there is a virus attached. These are mostly e-mails sent out without the senders knowledge or permission. Yet...
Pros: Live update gives you most up to date definition list Cons: No need to upgrade software if you have earlier version
First of all, I am not going to write a long review about this product. As you can see, Norton has made lots of version of AntiVirus. Basically, they are all the same.
Lately, we have found out there is a killer virus called nimda. The full...
Pros: Protects your computer well, doesn't get in your way, is extremely user friendly Cons: consumes disk space
Norton Antivirus (NAV) is the best thing you can install on your computer to guard it against viruses or anything else that can be harmful to your computer. It will detect viruses automatically while scanning files and usually will be able to get rid of...
Pros: It works! Online updates, Cons: E-mail protection problematical, updates too sophisticated.
An inexpensive and effective addition to any user's desktop or notebook that should not be regarded as additional protection for virus security problems (why additional, see the end of this article).
Norton's latest version is the latest in a...
Pros: Automatic updates, screens e-mail Cons: Customer support is non-existent.
If you like error messages that come right back as soon as you click "OK" to get rid of them, I highly recommend that you buy NAV from the Symantec web site. That's what I did and a few weeks later I started getting error messages saying that "vbox...
I should know this because I am a major purchaser for MicroAge NewBrunswick and I see a lot of this product go by. It is mostly used for big corporations such as Lottery Corporations and Hospitals and anything to do with the Government. You are better...
Pros: Norton's face not on the box Cons: none so far
I'm surprised not more people are writing about this product yet, but here goes (i'll be brief) Norton AV 2001 seems like a good bet if you are looking for quality virus protection. I have just bought this though! (2 weeks ago)So it really is too early...
Pros: Easy to use and update. Realiable. Not over-priced. Cons: Not too much spent on visual design.
This tried and trusted product is already a legend in its category. Antivirus has been my virus software of choice for years now and it has never let me down so far. The product is easy to install, use, configure, update etc. It operates in the...
Pros: Reliable, easy to figure out, updates available Cons: Takes up more space than most other antivirus programs.
If you do an antivirus program search nowadays, you will find so many programs you won't know what to make of it all. There are so many, but which ones are good, and which ones are not? The answer is simple. Just like in the past, Norton is still the...
Norton Antivirus is an excellent product manufactured by the best engineers. I use Norton Antivirus everyday to make sure my computer is 110% virus free. Norton has saved my computer many times from some of the worst viruses in the world! It has never...
With our computers so vulnerable to viruses, we decided to get a virus detector. I am sure everyone had heard of Norton, it detects an viruses, and warns you if and when they are detected. Th cases of viruses have become so much more serious, first it...

Norton Anti-virus is the best anti-virus software on the market. It is easy to use and install and it protects against most viruses that lurk around on the internet. It allows for automatic updating of virii definitions over the internet. More...
Pros: The price is right and it does everything you want. Cons: A bit processor intensive.
It is not unlike all the other anti-virus software that is available on the market. It protects against known viruses and general security faults, but so does every other anti-virus software. Its price is good for all that it delivers, especially the...
Pros: very fast,good online support,very very extensive virus protection Cons: pricy i might say and also auto update does not work all the time
This is one virus scan which does what it says...i am a frequent surfer and usually take little care to protect myself...

Pros: Completely self running - no hassle operation Cons: How could there be cons from Dr. Norton?
If you have never used Norton AntiVirus in your life then there must have been times when your computer has been the victim of a virus attack.
I have been surfing for years now and with four computers on the net I would be lost without Norton 2001 -...
Pros: GOOD and effective Cons: can upset your mail server settings in Outlook, Outlook Express- etc.
In my experience, there is one small flaw in Norton's 2000 and 2001. What I have found in working tech support for a major ISP is that when Norton's is installed, it sets the incoming (pop3) server to 127.0.0.1. Not sure why it chooses to set that to...
Pros: Automatic Live update, easy to use, found 3 viruses I didn't know about Cons: I've had no problems
I had 3 viruses that my old antivirus didn't catch, thankfully, they didn't do much harm. The Automatic live update makes it so easy to keep up with the latest viruses. There are lots of new definitions each week, and they have descriptions of the type...
I feel very save and secure when I have this software running... Unlike other anti-virus programs like McAfee. I'm not dissing McAfee but what I'm saying it that Norton is more secure. I got Norton 2000 with my new computer and felt very secure. And then...
Pros: Good updates/virus definitions Cons: Tech Support :(

Pros: Protects you against many viruses and hackers Cons: Very frequent updates may get you annoyed
Norton AntiVirus is an all around good program. But its users may only get as much as they can out of this software if they have a certain Internet connection. The way I see it is, this software is mainly for people who have a permanent connection to the...

This is one of the Best antivirus Suites available today. The control it gives over your computer is exceptional and the detection rate as well as the cleaning rate is one of the best you can have.

Pros: Very precise, can be updated easily Cons: Should have installed sooner
I had been getting all kinds of virus warnings from various friends the last month or so, but, never thinking it could happen to me, did not bother to update the IBM software that came with my machine in 1997. Guess what, my son-in-law sent me a Trojan...
Pros: helped when I was in desperate need of Antivirus Cons: On some computers it takes a long time to load
It's 2001! why wouldn't you get the software rated #1 to help you with any viral problems you may have or to prevent on your computer. I bought Norton Anti-Virus software when I had already had a virus in my computer. I installed it with little...
