Norton, Good or Bad

Norton is great if it works on your system. However Norton also has a very long history of causing problems and conflicts. The last time I tried it (about 6 mos ago) it was still a 16 bit app.

I've tried using Norton over the years and have always quickly deleted it for one reason or another, however many continue using this program. So its really a buy and try it deal. Check ZD for reviews of the more popular programs.

I have finally settled for DL discretion as my protection. For those that can afford several systems, the best recommendation is to never DL or introduce non purchased SW to their work/trade system. This method ALWAYS protects!!

Payment: Do you have any old HW/SW that might be bartered?? BTW, if you are using mainstream components that have been well reviewed and benchmarked, suggest you do it yourself. SW install is usually the biggest pain. Assembling a PC is NOT difficult.
