1 Star Frustrating
I have used Norton products for years. With the good reviews I decided to upgrade my expiring products and even purchased a 5 pack to install on the company computers……… big mistake.

The download was filled with fancy screens and instructions that were not consistent with the options offered. Normally this would only be a minor point as the right combination would appear. However, the new one refused to load claiming a thread error.

After multiple attempts I tried the online help. I started as #20 in line and v e r y

slowly progressed to 1# at which point I was connected to a tech who was probably in India and also working on a couple of other customers. He took me through the steps to get him inside my computer but that failed. He then made it possible for me to download the software. However, the installation immediately ate my existing norton (together with all the custom settings) and then wanted to reboot the system which the tech said was essential. The only problem is that after the installation the computer would not shut down normally and I needed to shut it down manually . Of course when it rebooted it had lost all the info about my contact with the tech and my session number was no longer valid.

Thinking that this was ok since I had norton I proceeded to open Norton. However, there is no opportunity to insert my user information , only space to accept another credit charge.

Total loss-about 3 hours and loss of existing security.

Next day - no response to my written request for help.

Survival in today’s market is all about customer service and here it seems to have taken on the character of vaporservice.

5 Stars works like it should
this year’s version installed easier than 2008 and seems to run more efficient on my computers. I installed it on a vista system with a duo core CPU - went great. Then moved on to an XP system with a Pentium 4 - also installed great. Then moved to another XP system with a duo core CPU - no problems. I was happier with how well it installed and is running for 2009 than the 2008.

5 Stars HUGE improvement over Norton Internet Security 2008
I wrote in my review of Norton Internet Security 2008 that I used the product - but despised it. The hit to my system’s resources was just too great, and I turned much of it off as a result.

The 2009 version is MUCH faster - to the point where I am leaving all options enabled. The hit to the system appears to be minimal. The user interface is simpler and less confusing also. Big improvements all around.

Be aware that the engines underlying Internet Security 2009 and Norton 360 are reported to be different, with 360 using the older version (i.e., performance problems).

3 Stars Buyer BEWARE!! All the users are tied together.
Norton Internet Security 2009 5-User

I have used Norton Antivirus for the past number of years and have been fairly satified with the level of protection, even if the customer support left a little to be desired. I decided to step up a bit and purchase Norton Internet Security 2009 because two of my computer’s subscriptions were running out, which in the newer versions leaves you UNPROTECTED!

Since I have 5 computers in the house and they were all coming due at different times, I decided to get the 5-user edition. After installing it on 2 computers and going to my Norton account, I seems that the subscription lasts only one year from the activation date of the FIRST computer subscription. I was very unhappy because two of the other computers still have at least 8-11 months of subscription left on them.

So if you buy a multi-user license, be aware that it looks like it will expire for all the computers at the same time. I would have never purchased this if I would have known that information.

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.

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

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.

Excellent Product. Have purchased this product in the past and will continue to purchase it.

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.

1 Star Computer has crashed
Since I have uninstalled the free AVG computer secutity software and installed the Norton Internet security software on my computer, the computer has become infected with a virus and unusable. I am glad I did not install it on any of my other computers.

1 Star Terrible User Interface
I recently switched to this from McAffe, and I think I’ll be switching back soon

The Norton Internet Security Window is very helpful only to those who have absolutely NO IDEA how internet security works. For people who want to command the program, it merely tells them what they already know.

Norton’s UI is made up of a series of windows and icons that attempt to reach the computer illiterate. They can be turned off, but they give computer-smart users little peace of mind.

For example, the Phishing filter on internet explorer. It sits there, telling you it is “on”. So what? I have NEVER seen it do ANYTHING in my entire online experience.

It didn’t even warn me when I went to a fake site, firefox let me know and I got nothing from Norton.

Along with this, Norton is highly lacking in features. Unlike McAffe, it doesn’t have the very handy SiteAdvisor, which, through the equivilent of Website crash-testing, rigourously checks every icon and file on any given site and gives a rating of how safe that website is.

I can only reccomend this program to those who don’t know how to protect themselves and those who just go to a few sites over and over again. Quite like acting as though you had a limited account on Windows.

For those who want to explore without worry, look elsewhere.

5 Stars Great Product
I’ve been a long time user of Norton Products (10+ years) and NIS is probably the best version yet. Easy to install and easy to keep up to date are big pluses with the program. It seems to run alot smoother that previous versions of the program, I haven’t seen it “bog down” my system, like previous versions seem to have done. The newer features, like Norton Insight and the Home Network settings seem to be easier to use. It’s worth the money to keep your ssytem up to date…get it!

5 Stars norton rocks!
Norton was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and grew up in Columbia, Maryland. His mother Robin, an English teacher, died of a brain tumor in 1997; his father, Edward Sr. is an attorney and former federal prosecutor under the Carter administration who now works for the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Norton Jr. is the grandson of developer James W. Rouse (also see The Rouse Company), who designed the city of Columbia, Maryland (where Norton grew up) and who also helped develop Baltimore’s Inner Harbor and Boston’s Quincy Market. He has two younger siblings; his sister Molly Norton, who attended Washington and Lee University and his brother Jim with whom he has collaborated professionally.

5 Stars best deal, best anti-virus
After I received my Norton Internet Security 2008, I installed it on my Vista computer with no problems. In fact, after fifteen minutes of activating the program, Norton e-mailed me and gave me a link to a free upgrade to the new Norton Internet Security 2009. Again it installed flawlessly. Then I installed the program on my XP computer with the same ease and with the same free upgrade. It has detected virus attacks and has recognized cookies, adware and spyware. It is a very good program at a very good price. Highly recommended.

4 Stars Symantec Got It Right
It does what it is supposed to do very well with few intrusions and system resources used. I have had many Norton products over the years and this is easily one of the best. The installation didn’t take a year with multiple reboots either!

1 Star would never buy again
It is a couple weeks since I bought this and somehow my computer caught a trojan virus that norton for some reason said it could not remove and I had to download something that could.Well that didn’t work and it messed my computer up so bad I had to go buy a new one last night! Thanks Norton!I purchased another brand of protection for my new computer.

5 Stars The Best Protection
I Have Used this product for the past five years and it’s the best antivirus software

1 Star AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!
I’m not kidding when I say avoid Symantec as your Anti-Virus provider. This is probably one of the absolute worst companies I’ve dealt with. VERY POOR support, and awful licensing structure. Worse, the myriad of useless web pages is not warming, to say the least. Good luck finding/activating your updates and upgrades.

I admit that I’m not the swiftest when it comes to Symantec’s solution, but I’ve had an easier time with Kaspersky, Sophos, Trend Micro, McAfee, AVG, F-PROT, avast, and Comodo. I’ve even had better experience with older Symantec products not even five years ago.

So, if you want an exercise in futility, give ‘em a go. Otherwise, save yourself some tears.

I will never buy another Norton/Symantec product again.

5 Stars Dumped ZoneAlarm, SpywareDr and Avast! for NIS 2009
I’ll keep my comments brief as most of the other reviewers covered everything I could say.

One, install time exceptionally fast!!!

Two, only one reboot.

Three, simple elegant interface.

Four, waits until computer is idle and them works its magic, but even then resource usage remains low.

Five, the complete recoding of NIS 2009 and dumping their previous NIS suites into the trash has this security suite running faster than any I have ever seen, and I have tried many, many different ones.

Just for having the guts to dump the old resource hog of their previous security suite, I bought NIS 2009. BTW, the old NIS versions WERE resource hogs. I started out using Norton years ago, and still have Norton Partition Magic which I bought 5-6 years ago and I’m pleased to see that they still sell it on their site, but I dumped Norton when it went hog . . . really disgusted. The code in NIS 2009 rocks.

And to make it all work even better the Internet Security Suite reviews I read gave NIS 2009 high marks.

My wife’s laptop upgraded from a previous version of NIS to NIS 2009 and I saw it in action on her computer with is NOT packed with high cpu cycles although it has 2Gb of mem.

Buy this one and you will not be sorry.

BTW, don’t even consider Norton 360. It sucks big time.

4 Stars NIS 2009 install tip
If you are replacing a prior version of NIS Norton Internet Security 2009 1User/3Pc, save yourself some aggravation and run the Symantec uninstall tool from Symantec’s web page before you try to install NIS 2009. It completely removes all Symantec products. You don’t get a clean uninstall if you just do it from the control panel and the new version won’t install correctly.

4 Stars Norton gives me a feeling of security
I had Norton Internet security 2008. One day last month I went to download my daily virus signatures and a dialog box from Norton came up and asked me if I wanted to download Norton Internet Security 2009 FOR FREE. Of course I clicked on “yes”. N.I.S. 2009 is great. I like the new interface better, it only takes about 30 seconds to download new virus signatures and other updates. A quick scan takes mabee a minute. A full scan of my roughly 110 gigabytes takes under half an hour. After I download my daily updates I have the option to see what files and modules were updated. On the main menu there is a counter telling me how many days I have until I need to resubscribe. I haven’t realy explored the rest of the program, but these three things are all I really need to do to keep my system “clean”. I wish other software companys would make software as helpful as N.I.S. 2009, and would be as generous as Symantec.

5 Stars Great service and product
The transaction was faultless. The product exceeded my expectations. I will order again from this source.

4 Stars Norton’s Internet Security
According to Symantec this product is only for Window users.

There is a Macintosh version called Norton’s Internet Security Dual Protection for the Mac.

From searching the Web the product so far is only available from Symantec.

There is an older product but it will not work with later OS 10 Systems including Tiger & Leopard.

3 Stars It does not compare with what I already have
By the way I returned the Home Edition, because I would prefer the standard edition.

4 Stars Always a good program
I have always liked WordPerfect better than word. My edition was getting old so I picked up this new one. It is a bit different but easy to navigate and has some great updates. I would recommend it for anyone needing lots or word processing.

3 Stars Word processor and spreadsheet OK
The best part of the whole program is WordPerfect word processor and Quattropro the spreadsheet. The rest of the program is not worth anthing. I loaded the complete program and then uninstalled everything except the above.

4 Stars Word Perfect is almost perfect
This version of WP is as good as its predecessors, and the conversion programs are better. Make it your default app for Word docs.

There is only one problem I have come across so far. If you set Select mode to WP 9, it is still buggy; it takes some effort to select the text you want. You can always set the mode to the earlier version.

1 Star Do not buy for serious business?
I have always used the other well-known office suites in the past but when I received an offer on this suite at a significant discount, I thought I would try it. I should mention I’m a doctoral student in the middle of a dissertation, so the challenge was to migrate important data and documents into WordPerfect and Quattro Pro. While I was able to get it done the Quattro Pro interface with SPSS, which had worked seemlessly with the other spreadsheet, failed horribly. Not to mention the complicated details of what should be simple document formatting–the Visual Basic Editor kept freezing or denying me access.

Invest in a better product if you have serious work. I’ve gone back to the benchmark office suite product.
