5 Stars Bitdefender
So glad to get away from Nortons. So far this total security system has been everything it claims.

Great buy from Amazon

5 Stars The Best PC Security on the market…
I have used bit defender for a year or so now, and I have used all the other top brands, and I believe BitDefender is the leader in all around PC security compared to all other brands…Norton, Kaspersky, Trendmicro etc. The only area it is weak is in backup, but that pales in comaprison to the overwhelming benefits in every other area of pc security and internet security.

5 Stars An excellent security product.
Bitdefender Total Security 2009 2Yr/3Pc not only is an excellent security product, it also gives you two years and three computer usages.I purchased this fine product from Amazon.com for a very good low price at the time and have been using it ever since.Bitdefender does all it says and more. Buy it,try it, and see for yourself.

4 Stars safe and sinple
Loaded Bitdefender on three computers that I have networked in my house. I can run scans and general maintenance on the other two computers via my computer. The parental controls are great.

5 Stars Product was flawed, but the service was excellent.
I have been pleased with BitDefender Security AntiVirus product for the past 2 years on both of my computers. So when it was time to renew, I continued with BitDefender AntiVirus protection. Ordering was easy at Amazon, and I received the package before scheduled date.

The product loaded just fine, until I tried to load the “registry key” provided with the package. The key came up as not valid so I was stuck with the trial key which expires in 30 days.

I contact the company right away. They responded immediately and worked with me over several days, (via email, my choice), to no avail.

They problem was sloved by issuing a new BitDefender Security download.

It works just fine.

The 2009 security package has more features than the V10 package I had last time. Well worth the money, and it covers both my computers for 2 years as well.

Service is everything, and I am happy with BitDefender’s Customer Service to boot.

4 Stars Jerry’s BitDefender Review
The only problem I have with this software is that it will not load during startup. I have to load it manually. I believe it is essential that this type of software be loaded at startup. I am attempting to resolve the issue with the manufacturer.

5 Stars Flawless…
Got this software right when it came out and it’s everything Consumer Reports said it was. My PC is running like new… in fact better than new. Norton was slowing the thing down terribly. It also found a slew of viruses that Norton did not find. The other features like the gaming mode and file vault make this software a bargain. Definitely worth the #1 ranking!

1 Star junk
don’t even consider it unless you want to crash your machine and deal with people with absolutely no customer service ethic.

4 Stars Great Deal
I purchased this product about a month ago and have been very pleased. It was easy to install and set up.It does take a long time to do a full system scan but if you set it to run in the middle of the night you’ll have no problems. I researched a lot of internet security programs before buying Bitdefender and I think it is the best for the money and Amazon beat everyone’s price.

1 Star Wouldn’t Update with dial-up
Gave it to my Daughter, because I have dial-up and tech-support told me it would not update all updates with dial-up. Had an error and did what tech-support said and still had an error. Second time I’ve tried bitdefender and no luck.

2 Stars Yes it did install - OK.
Yes it did install - OK. That’s the only reason it got 2 stars not one.

Mine main system was working fine until Norton AV 2009 (I have not used Norton software since the 90’s.) I thought I’ll try it again for the first time. Probs. after probs., I am going to reinstall my system again MINUS Norton AV 2009 and reinstall AVV and we will see if it’s the software or the hard drive… BUT I’m thinking it Norton AV 2009 is the prob. I have another partition with Ubuntu/Linux .. Yes I know why are you using Windows XP pro? Because of 90% of all software is written for Windows. I am playing “King Bounty the Ledgend” Side note: great game 4.5 stars, (I’m TRYING to play King Bounty)

super quick save game(s) bat file, save the bat file in the {drive letter}:\Documents and Settings\%%user%%\My Documents\My Games

copy “Kings Bounty” H:King_backup

copy “Kings Bounty\$save\*” H:King_backup\$save

5 Stars Good Stuff
I’ve always used Norton and once again the 2009 version doesn’t disappoint. I got it at a really reasonable price, much cheaper than Walmart, Best Buy and even Symantec’s own website. My wife and I surf on alot of different websites and using Windows these days its so easy to get a virus or malware/spyware on your pc. I am happy to report that I have been using Norton since 2003 and have not had one bad incident. I highly recommend.

5 Stars Norton Antivirus 2009 Review
Excellent Product. Have purchased this product in the past and will continue to purchase it.

4 Stars Virus protection +
Norton Antivirus 2009This is a great buy for using on just one computer. These products from Norton work very well.

3 Stars Much Improved for 2009, But At Least One Fatal Flaw Rears Its Head
After years of running Norton Antivirus products, with ever increasing demands on system resources, as well as slowing down the machines these products were installed on, the completely rewritten version of Norton Internet Security 2009 has gone a very long way towards correcting years of bloatware code that was made worse with every new release.

This version installs fast, runs fast, and is almost entirely unobtrusive, with one very major exception.

This software will break your home or small business network.

In a well-documented bug first discovered in October 2008, Norton interferes with, and eventually blocks access to other machines on your home network. Norton admits there is a problem, and has been stalling customers for months with promises for a fix, yet keeps pushing the release date out further and further.

Install Norton 2009, and eventually all of the computers on your home network under My Network Places will disappear, and will eventually be blocked from access. While you can frequently manually reach your other networked machines by typing their addresses directly into an address bar, software that depends on access to your other networked machines directly (index, backup, small business collaboration tools, etc.) usually cannot work this way, and you are effectively cut off from using those applications. Worse, over time, Norton will begin periodically cutting off access to your networked machines. Suddenly file copying between machines fails, extremely long delays in accessing other computers on your network occurs, and your frustration level mounts.

Norton admits the only current solution to this problem is to completely uninstall Norton 2009 Antivirus/Internet Security products. There is no other workaround.

Worse yet, the responsiveness of the company to major software bugs has been less than acceptable. It literally takes months for even the most urgent bugs to get identified, corrected, and then put through a laborious test procedure. To add insult to injury, it then takes up to six additional weeks for the fixed code to be incorporated into their slow update release schedule and finally reach every customer.

This truly mars an otherwise promising product and makes it an unacceptable option for those dependent on networked machines, such as a home or small business network. If you are dependent on your network to access remote hard drives or collaborate in an office environment, Norton 2009 products are absolutely not acceptable for use and I strongly recommend you look elsewhere until the company finally fixes the problem.

A very lengthy discussion about this problem can be found on the Norton Community Forum. Simply search for “NAV blocks access to hard disk.” The later discussions in the thread contain the most pertinent information.

3 Stars Hmmmmmmm
I’m not real impressed with this program. I find you have to be online to access most of the graphics, and they just keep adding the same old graphics to the program each time. I want a lot of new stuff!

1 Star Worst Printmaster of All
I should have listened to the reviews. I’ve been using Printmaster since PM 8 came out. I always loved it and used it frequently. My two kids used previous versions for school for years and got incredible grades with it. Believe me, PM 18 needs the internet to download for a LOT of the art and projects, too many if you ask me. A real big inconvenience to Broderbund loyal customers. Shame on you Broderbund.

Out of 1,305,000 images, 92,000 are on the system, the rest you have to download. Out of 21,000 projects, 1,000 of them are on the system. This is unacceptable. I hate it.

1 Star Very disappointed in BorderBund They messed up a Great Product
I have used printmaster for several years and I have been very impressed with the product. Especially PM16 it works very good. But I am now using PM18 and I do not like it at all. The graphics that were in 16 are not all there and you have to access the interenet to download the graphics I am not at all happy about that. I do not understand why they took such a great product and messed it up this way. I dont know if I will ever buy another version of PM. They do not even tell you that you have to download the graphics from the interenet every time and I think that is deceptive and you can’t talk to anyone about the problems. I have removed this version and gone back to version 16. Just a waste of my money and time.

4 Stars Well worth the money
Upon receiving the Printmaster,I found the directions were quite simple.I made out a bunch of Christmas cards,in which I got great reviews.Plan on using it alot in the coming months/years.I highly recommend this program.

4 Stars Great graphics, suitable for all your projects!
I have used Broderbund publishing programs for many years, upgrading them as new versions came out. My current software is the latest version of Printmaster, compatible w/Windows Vista, which is installed on my new laptop. The quality & graphics of this newest software is as excellent as all the previous versions were. I’m completely satisfied with it.

5 Stars WordPerfkt 11 with extras.
This is an earlier version of WordPerfect, but it does what we wanted. If you need WordPerfect this is a cheap way to go. However if you don’t need WordPerfect specifically then OpenOffice is free, is compatible with the Microsoft Office Suite and is free.

3 Stars Software purchase
The product arrived very quickly, was packaged nicely and in great shape. It was different than I expected, as it was not the original version of the Wordperfect software that I expected. However, it did include many other pieces of software that I did not expect (an added bonus). The first computer installation went fine, no problems, however the second installation on Vista was unsuccessful. I am not sure if this was the software or not. I have mixed feelings about the product, but I paid very little for the software, so I do feel that I got my money’s worth.

5 Stars software
I bought it to open some quattro pro files I had sent to me and it worked perfectly

5 Stars Go to corel.com and get a free trial of the latest version for 30 days!
You can try before you buy at Corel.com. The latest version is easier to use and better. The version from stayathomedad’s we know games would not install on my computer. I guess that’s what you get for only paying $20 for the program. On top of that I agree with a fellow reviewer, I believe it has been pirated.

2 Stars Verification
Corel WordPerfect Office 12 Standard [OLD VERSION]It is very old, and unable to verify using Serial # printed on insert. It’s fine to just use for fun, but I am disappointed, as it is not user friendly.
