no thanks, ill stick with NOD32 as we all know that's one of the best av's u can get.
is there any free alternatives that are almost as good as NOD32?
how's it's detection rate compared to NOD32? ... if it's pretty much the same i might switch to it.

"Set it and forger it"sorry "Install it and forger it" (caz if u install it once, u won't install it again. It's really **** product)So, the new key things with Shitmantec Norton 2008 are the one that every other mayor player has for years... how ironic!
I say stick with NOD32 or avast! Antivirus and be safe.
- Detects and removes spyware and viruses.
Huh? What did all version before it do then?
anyways the only one that would use this here its radish
Believe or not because I didn't believe at first, norton 2007 was miles ahead of 2006 in terms of performance and quality of product and 2008 supposed to be ever more efficient.
Norton 2007 AV takes about the same ram as NOD32! and almost identical detection rates.
for the record... I use nod32
32bit or 64bit?
Only XP or XP and Vista all versions?
they dont take into consideration the impact their av's have on systems.....
A variant of the trojan Win32.Norton was out earlier today. This variant is part of the new "2008" series.
Although significantly lighter on the system than earlier versions, it's main aim is to to swindle people's money.
The malware also features an "uninstall" feature that deliberately doesn't work and corrupts the PC when the feature is activated.
Corporate users are at a significantly higher risk of infection.
AntiVirus vendors have been quick to provide a removal tool for Norton.

With that said, it amazes me when I read these posts from end users that have not even tried the new '08 version. It is MUCH lighter, faster and excels in detections of both viruses and spyware (do a Google on AV comparisons, some have the '08 version). I performed a test recently. I am a fan of Nod32 and have it on my personal PC. I ran some file intensive apps and timed them with both Nod and '08. Symantec excelled or matched Nod32. I will certainly admit that previous versions, say 04-'07, personal editions are major hogs with several bugs, not so with '08. It is a dramatic improvement. Please don't make such assumptions without actually trying the product; it is childish and meaningless to all.
In the corporate world there simply is no comparison to Symantec’s Corp Editions. It is the standard upon which all others are judged. It is like comparing Photoshop to Windows image editor, not even close. Trend's Corporate is quite competitive but just doesn't quite cut it.
I’m done
