I bought this for a 1 GHz Celeron machine using 256 MB of memory that had previously been running Kaspersky 6 with no problems. On installing the BitDefender however it was clear that the system was now running slower, with a noticeable 'satellite delay'.
Despite fiddling with settings and attempting to pare-down the software burden the problems persisted. On uninstalling BitDefender, the problem disappeared. I wasn't permitted to return the product, so despite appearing cheaper than some competing products, the price was money wasted.

A much better software than Norton and Mcafee. Although, Norton seems like a more complex automated software it does take up alot of pc resources. However, Systemsuite 5 was great as it did all that Norton did and more PLUS didn't eat up all the valuble resources from the pc, hence your pc ran faster and smoother. Although Systemsuite was not as user friendly (in terms of updating itself in the background as well as some fix-it things) and, not being as easy to use like Norton. I felt it was excellent value for money as once you buy it you never have to pay an annual fee for updates like Norton; updates are "semi-automated" (it asks you if you want to update yes/no when there are updates ready) and if all the numerous functions from the ...

I really don't know where to start in warning you off of any Norton product, let alone this one. I've had problems with previous Norton Antivirus products, but was swayed into purchasing this as it was available as a special offer when I purchased my new computer. I wish I hadn't.
Every single fault that has occured with my new computer has been due to Norton Antivirus, from the minor - Norton Firewall prevents a multitude of programs, such as iTunes and Mozilla Firefox, from working - to the major - a 80% uninstallation of all it's files on a normal start-up (and if that was not a fault of the program, which I believe it was, then it must have been due to a virus. Therefore it didn't do it's ANTI-VIRUS task then, did it?)

Norton is consisently the worst anti-virus product on the market. Students, buy Kaspersky anti-virus. Better product, better value for money. It's my first choice any day

It is easy to use and found it very effective. It does not slow down my PC. However, after using this software for a few weeks, I am now not able to get updates. The trendmicro web site offer a few solutions. None works. I would have to ring their premium line to resolve the issue.
AVOID this software.
