| | Re: installing anti norton In my opinion, you don't. Norton products are next to useless and I certainly wouldn't put any Norton product on my machine. They cause more problems than they cure! If you want an anti virus application use Avast anti virus (the free version). Vista has its own firewall and spyware is covered by Windows defender which is also already on Vista. -- John Barnett MVP Associate Expert Windows - Shell/User Web: http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org Web: http://vistasupport.mvps.org The information in this mail/post is supplied "as is".

I don't use the stuff myself. I use Grisoft's AVG except on my business machine where I use ClamWin.

| | Re: installing anti norton Interesting. All your replies were "anti Norton". Now what does that say about "anti Norton Internet Security"? -- Hope this helps.

| | Re: installing anti norton I have to agree with the other posters. I haven't allowed a Norton product near my machines since W98. It is my opinion that Norton is a case of the cure being worse than the disease. Doctor, I have an ingrown toe-nail... We must amputate at the hip immediately...and I am taking your right hand and left thumb as a precaution... If you got it installed, uninstall it. If not, quit trying to put it on & use AVG, ClamWin or Avast from the supplied links. -- A Professional Amateur...If anyone knew it all, none of would be here!

Norton Internet Security 2007 installs and runs well under VISTA and there's an AntirSpam addon that you can download for free from the Norton website. Despite other opinions, which they are entitled to, I like and trust Norton and 2007 is much less of a resource hog than previous versions. |

| | Re: installing anti norton At least you can TOTALLY remove a virus from a computer. You can not do that with Norton; Symantec likes to keep a hand in your wallet!
