A Full 360 Degree Circle of Features
Presumably this software got its name because it offers a full circle of protection. Several years ago I discontinued using Norton antivirus software because of installation and performance issues. It also made no sense for me to pay for protection when I could download and install McAfee antivirus software free-of-charge through my Comcast Internet account. Since I recently switched from Comcast to Verizon FIOS, I thought it might be a good time to give Norton's software another try. I must say that I'm impressed with the improvements in Norton's newest version.
The most important features that I look for in antivirus software is the ability to protect my computer from viruses and spyware and to do so without adversely affecting my computer's performance. Although McAfee's antivirus software, included free with my Comcast Internet service, apparently protected my Dell Inspiron notebook computer from virus infections for more than 3 1/2 years, it really slowed down my computer at times...especially when opening PowerPoint and Word files. When McAfee was running its weekly automatic full-file scan it would consume nearly all of my computer's power, leaving few resources for me to do my tasks.
I experienced several pleasant surprises after removing my former antivirus software and installing Norton 360. Most importantly, the installation went smoothly and quickly. Norton 360 automatically configured itself on both my Outlook and Outlook Express mail clients to screen for SPAM, which I consider the scourge of the Internet. Then it did a quick scan of my hard drive to make sure there were no infections and offered to automatically remove hundreds of relatively harmless tracking cookies that were slowing down my computer. My computer now runs noticably faster.
Now I can open Word and PowerPoint files in a fraction of the time it took me to do so when I was using other antivirus software. I might add that I've also been pleased with Norton 360's ability to identify and divert SPAM from my inbox and into a SPAM folder which I can check regularly and empty. Although my mail provider also screens for SPAM, a lot of it still gets through and I previously wasted enormous amounts of my time deleting it from my inbox. My Norton 360 catches and diverts most SPAM and, for the ones that it misses the first time, I am able to quickly "teach" it to catch it the next time. This has been one of Norton 360's features that I have appreciated the most.
In summary, I see Norton 360 as a significant improvement over previous Norton antivirus programs that I have used and I get much better performance from my computer since I switched from other antivirus software. Only time and experience will tell me if Norton 360 is as effective with its virus protection. So far, after using it for nearly two weeks, I'm still virus free and my computer is running better and faster.
After writing this review and using the software for a couple of months, I installed Norton 360 on two more computers; an Acer netbook with Atom processor running Windows-XP home SP3 and an older mid-tower computer that I built several years ago. It is running Windows-XP pro SP3. In both cases the installations went smoothly and those computers actually ran faster after I removed other anti-virus software and installed Norton 360.
Worst customer service and tech support ever
I'm in I.T. myself, so I don't lightly malign a software company, and certainly not without plenty of personal experience with it. I've used Norton products since before Symantec got involved, and I've seen the customer experience go all the way to the bottom. I love their products, but I've had to contact them numerous times because of install or activation problems.
It's no longer possible to talk to anyone in America, whether by phone, chat or email. On the phone, I can barely get past the heavy accents and have to make them repeat themselves over and over. If you approach with an "easy" problem, they may be able to find it in their cookbook of standard responses, but if my problems were easy I wouldn't need their help. If it isn't in their book, forget about help. Period. Even if you can make them understand your problem, chances are the solution won't work.
Prior to this weekend, my most recent experience was through email. Five separate times (no exaggeration) I explained my problem in great detail and perfect clarity. Every single time, they sent me an answer that had absolutely no relation to the question. The last response was supposedly from a supervisor. I finally had to waste many hours in a literature search.
Yesterday I bought a 3-user license renewal for Norton 360, for two computers. Instead of renewing my activations, it decremented my available license count for the first computer, and refused to activate on the second. I had two lengthy, frustrating chat sessions, followed by two call-backs from supervisors. Both times I was assured that the problem was solved. It isn't. Now I've got to wade through that system again to get a refund. I'm finished with Symantec--for good.
Norton 360 V.4 - Awesome!
Having used both free antivirus and spyware applications, and also McAfee and several versions of Norton, I love Norton 360 and wouldnt use anything else. It has worked very well for me - and starting with last years V.3, they enhanced it a lot AND have cut down - practically eliminated - the resource hogging. Set your Norton 360 V.4 up and it will work for you safely and quietly. It has intercepted many dangerous items that I had no idea about until I looked into my history or printed my report. I highly recommend this product to anyone, but don't take my word for it - you can try it before you buy it - download the trial from Symantec and see for yourself :-)
