interesting to note that the bugnet site links to a symantec page to rag about all the incompatibilities. symantec is at least providing this info for users to view, just as they have readme.txt files that cover every issue they are aware of.
and of the 30 odd programs one finds on that list, maybe 7 are symantec apps, meaning don't use symantec components within a suite to uninstall another component. the suite itself, for instance, has its own uninstaller.
i don't know how incompatibility with 20+ applications out of thousands stacks up to other utility suites. i'd guess pretty good. like you say, it's a zoo. and if you'd hate to be a tech, imagine being a software company. i don't know how they make anything work, frankly.
i've noticed that the bugnet site has a propensity for either reviewing old software, or not going back to update their findings. it's quite misleading, imo, for an article to include language such as, "no fixes have been released so far", and then to not provide updates.
i don't know, maybe they do, but people just keep posting old stuff.
