F$&*%ING Norton Antivirus!
For the second Saturday in a row, I am spending hours on the stupid support line trying to figure out why this expensive software is uninstalling itself.

What a waste of life!

GRRRRRR!

1. Nortons is junk
It is real strangleware. Dump it, get AVG, it free and doesn't eat up your resources of screw up your system. I've been using it for years. My experiences with Nortons were all negative.

3. It works great
it is put out by GriSoft, I think. They also have a free antispy ware that is good. I use Spybot S&D and the stuff by Grisoft picked up even more. Good luck. Nortons plays with your registry and really raises hell with resources. They should take the stuff off the market.
