| | Kaspersky security My Pc came with a preinstalled Norton Internet Security, which is expired after 90 days (as usual). Now I can get from my Bank a free Kaspersky Internet Security for 6 months. Before I download it I checked the FAQ and found this: " If Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 is installed, all other Anti Virus programs have to be deinstalled." My question: what happens when I uninstall the Norton Protection Center,which indicates still Virus Protection ???? Thanks |

| | RE: Kaspersky security Hi swisscanada, This is a standard warning from most, if not all, anti-virus vendors. Having more than one anti-virus program installed and running on a computer at the same time is not recommended as it could lead to false positive reports from one or more of the programs. Follow the instructions from Symantec (link given below). When ALL Norton programs are uninstalled from your system, you should have no trouble in installing Kaspersky.

| | Re: Kaspersky security Your Norton subscription expired, hence your virus & Norton updates are not upto date. Uninstal Norton, activate windows Firewall, install Kaspersky, which will disable the win Firewall "swisscanada" <jodel@xxxxxx-donat.net> wrote in message news:7D8016D0-F5DF-414B-B08D-8901AF846E81@xxxxxx Quote: > My Pc came with a preinstalled Norton Internet Security, which is expired > after 90 days (as usual). > Now I can get from my Bank a free Kaspersky Internet Security for 6 > months. > Before I download it I checked the FAQ and found this: > > > " If Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 is installed, all other Anti > Virus programs have to be deinstalled." > > My question: what happens when I uninstall the Norton Protection > Center,which indicates still Virus Protection ???? > Thanks > > > > > > |

| | RE: Kaspersky security No anti-virus product is good beyond its subscription date. The subscription must be renewed when it expires or you will not receive new virus definitions; therefore, your anti-virus will be ineffective against all emerging infections. As advised, remove your expired anti-virus program and install Kaspersky. If the Kaspersky subscription is only good for six months, you will need to decide whether you want to renew the Kaspersky subscription at that time. If not, you will need to choose another anti-virus program. Always have one good resident anti-virus that is active and capable of updating its virus definitions. Never have more than one anti-virus program. -- MS-MVP Windows Security "swisscanada" wrote: Quote: > My Pc came with a preinstalled Norton Internet Security, which is expired > after 90 days (as usual). > Now I can get from my Bank a free Kaspersky Internet Security for 6 months. > Before I download it I checked the FAQ and found this: > > > " If Kaspersky Internet Security 7.0 is installed, all other Anti > Virus programs have to be deinstalled." > > My question: what happens when I uninstall the Norton Protection > Center,which indicates still Virus Protection ???? > Thanks > > > > > > |
