Bull****. I've seen Norton totally fail. I'm an IT guy that repairs this
stuff, and IMHO Norton itself is the same as a virus in many respects.

Its not true that 'everyones' suite sucks out performance, but as you say,
Norton sure does.

All most SUITE software is nothing more than an in-house firewall that is
substituted for the stock MS firewall.

I don't trust anything by Norton.

Norton may be trustworthy. I say that in spite of your feelings
because for my friends who use it, they do not suffer any attacks.
However, they do suffer from its huge resource drain and my friends'
most consistent complaint is how SLOW their system is.

Norton sucks the air out of performance.


Norton Security *SUITE* does this. So does everyone else's *SUITE*.

Just plain Norton antivirus or whoever's antivirus isn't a significant
resource hog.
