Hi Pete,

Yikes, I went for it as well. I think that if you use your VISA card, as I did, that you were protected from fraud. If you don't get what you were supposed to, you can cancel the VISA transaction by calling them up. That is supposed to be one of the protections of buying on the web and using your credit card. If you send cash or check, you don't have this.

I have never done this, but hope I am correct on this.

Pete,
It wasn't a scam I just got Norton SystemWorks 2001 Professional
Edition containing all 5 programs as promised for $19.95.
The email address I gave them though is receiving 5X more
spam than before I gave them the address but it's my 3rd
address so I just changed it.

Just used Systemworks for the first time.
I spent 3 hours repairing and optimizing.
Everything went great! My PC is very noticiably
faster with both the Win ME and W2K Pro.
That was probably the best $20 I ever spent.

The Norton 2001 product line does not work with XP; I found out the hard way and am still waiting for my Systemworks 2002 to arrive.
