12. Used to swear by Norton Systemworks, but I think it completely hosed
one of my computers.
My favorite episode was when Norton popped up saying something about one of its files had been corrupted and everything froze. I did a control-alt-delete and shut everything down in preparation to restart.
Norton pops up, completely overriding my restart saying something like "we must scan your system because something is wrong." Fifteen minutes it grinds away. Then it says "Norton has encountered a problem, please visit this website for more details."
I go to the website and it's basically "something got corrupted, and we recommend you restart the computer."
