I've been in IT for over 30 years, many of them using MS products. I have an IQ of around 140. It took me five minutes to get into the stupid, fiddly plastic packaging. Absolutely appalling design - unless it was designed as a MENSA puzzle!
Then I tried to activate the full key having been using a 60 day free trial key. That in itself is an adventure. The instructions provided were useless. The instructions on the internet were useless but I got there in the end. The product itself is fine and great value but they don't half make you work for it. 0/10 for packaging, 0/10 for activation instructions, 8/10 for the product. >>More Details |

Okay, i'm up to date with modern technology and a bit behind when it comes with virus protection, lets say not as experienced as some and probably one of the youngest to comment on a product. I currently am using Norton nternet Security and thought about buying this product. But one word of advice you should consider. At the start the sign up to "Norton" is free. For a whole year it will do its job successfully, it does benefit from a simple user interface and isn't doesn't regularly demand attention. Its good for that i sing its praise. But after one year of the product, exactly 365 days. The product basically turns off. Its still monitors the basics but no longer recieves updates, so the risk is the same as before. Then comes the constant pop-up asking ... Read More:

Norton 2009 is a vast improvement on its predecessors. It has built on the positives of previous versions and Symantec actually seem to have learnt from criticisms levelled by many in the past, including myself.
This version is quicker to install, update, and use than any of the previous versions I have used and it is less pedantic in addressing programmes it hasn't registered before. It still seems to offer a great level of protection, much better than many of its rivals, and blends well with XP and Vista. Another great improvement in NIS 09 is that the price is down significantly from previous years, even for the multiple computers version which previously has been ridiculously expensive. The fact that Amazon has it under half ... Read More: >>More Details |

THis caused us enormous problems. See our full review in upgrade 2009 - we returned to 2008 as all 5 of our systems failed using this product. I will be avoiding it.

One thing about Symantec products is they work, if you just want a good anti-virus scanner that is simple to use and that is simple to keep up to date then this is the answer. The user interface if minimal, allowing you to scan your drives individually or all at once as well as manually running the update program. Other than installing it and letting it run a full system scan every now and then there is nothing to do, the software runs in the background; along with the auto updater.

The product is an absolute joke. And the Technical Support / Customer Service at Symantec is even worse.
1.) Upon Starting the PC I am greeted with multiple pop-ups - Virus Definitions Out of Date and Virus Scan Out of Date etc etc. On entering the software everything is ok..... 2.) The system seems to hang on the "one button check up" during the Norton Cleanup scan and then after 30 minutes will find files to clean up. Example found 763 then cleaned. Immediately ran again and found 1091, then cleaned (again). Immediately ran again and found 2111. 3.) Have used Symantec Chat on 4 occasions and each time they tell me that it is sorted. When I start the computer again, the problems start again. On the 4th occasion i spent over ... Read More: >>More Details |

Well like so many, I bought it when it was on offer...
Installed and made my fist whole system back up. Lets face it, you never know if its done it right until you have to use it...fortunately it had as I reformatted my harddrive and reinstalled as hoped... thats the good the bad is since then I have not been able to create another wholesystem backup - well not one that I feel confident of... and after 3 or 4 emails to their support - each time it has taken AT LEAST 1 week to reply and then displays a complete lack of understanding of the question if you need to be sure that you have a good backup, shop elsewhere >>More Details |

I have used Norton products for ten years and have always thought that they are the best despite a few problems along the way. A year ago I purchased Norton Internet Security 2007 and since then Norton gave me a free download of the 2008 version. This year (as always) it is more expensive to buy a boxed product than simply renew the subscription - CRAZY !!! But every year I buy the new product, so I already have a new boxed Internet Security 2008 to install in a few days time.
HOWEVER,I have recently been having a few problems, and every time I scan my computer I find viruses - today there were two Trojan Horses that were zipped in e.mail spam, and a Downloader virus. The first two were dealt with, the latter can't be dealt with - I have to get rid myself. I ... Read More: >>More Details |

Don't think about using this for technical writing.
Besides the more general problems with Office 2007 (such as the greater time spent looking for various operations on all of the different menu tabs, the greatly reduced ability to customise the toolbars) there are big specific problems with technical writing. 1) Biggest problem: There are many journals that will not accept the docx format. Word 2007 CAN NOT save manuscripts in 'regular' .doc format, only a pseudo .doc format. For instance, equations are saved as uneditable graphics images. This is also unacceptable for writing journal articles, as well as sharing documents with other colleagues who do not use Office 2007. 2) Cross-hatching and stripping are indispensable for technical ...

I just installed this on my desktop and laptop and not found it not too different to outlook 2003. Can't really see major changes but as all msn office product goes, it is still fairly easy to use.
