Norton 360 5.0
I just loaded Norton 360 version 5.0. It said it was going to uninstall the old version (or so I thought). It removed my old version and now I can't use my cd drive. Anyone familiar with this version?
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Re: Norton 360 5.0
Bill, we quit using Norton at the school because it got to invasive and conflicted with too many programs.

Re: Norton 360 5.0
Bill:
Same here. I haven't allowed Norton on any of the family's computers or any of the ones I maintain for friends and former clients. Norton/Symantec is simply too invasive as BR said and it is a very resource demanding program that seems to have limited usefulness anymore. Norton is the prime target of hackers and it seems they have to really take over a computer to combat those threats.
Here is an old rule of thumb. You can only have 1 antivirus suite loaded/partially loaded on a system at once and that includes 2 versions of the same suite. If more than 1 is present problems usually present as I/O conflicts making some hardware unusable.
And that seems to be what is happening.
You may have to manually remove via the control panel-remove/add programs, the old version or maybe both then reload the updated version if you still want to use Norton.
Personally I use System Mechanic Professional which gives me all the tools that I need. I augument that with Malwarybytes, SuperAntiSpyware, Spybot S&D and believe it or not Windows Defender to keep viruses/trojans/adaware and bots off of my puters. So far we have been pretty well virus free for about 5 or 6 years now.
Hope that helps.

Re: Norton 360 5.0
Bill,
I haven't used Norton for years for the reason stated above. But I do occasionally bump into on a client's machine. Norton does offer a removal tool than can be very helpful. Take a look.

Re: Norton 360 5.0
Norton is supposed to protect you from viruses. I finally decided it IS a virus. It takes your machine over, hogs all the resources, keeps you from doing anything else and is impossible to get rid of. For the last several years, I have been using Trend Micro Security. I hope they don't go bloatware like so many others have.

Re: Norton 360 5.0
Yes, it is working now. I went to their online support and the guy was real helpful and got me through it. The cd drive started working befor eI got hold of them, but I just wanted to check with them before going any farther.
I have been using Norton for several years now and never seemed to have problems. I talked to three different IS gurus at work and they all reccommended 360 so I went with it again. Maybe I just never noticed problems in the past. Are there any other things I should watch for as for its performance?

Re: Norton 360 5.0
I guess I am the exception, I have been using Norton for many years and been happy with it. My main use is browsing and email and I use the Internet Security 2012 at present. I like the way it watches all programs and downloads, including warning of attack sites you may be about to enter. I occasionally run addaware, or something similar, but they never find anything Norton has missed.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!

Re: Norton 360 5.0
I use:
Avast
MalwareBytes
Spybot
SpywareBlaster
All free. So far so good. My guru son recommended these so I listen to him. He's smarter than me. Just ask him. He used to use AVG but switched to Avast. Can't argue with the results.

Maybe I should have asked what oil to use in my Cub!

FWIW, I use Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes. Seem to be working fine for me.

Not to worry, John, you're not the only one. I've been using Norton for 6 or 7 years on all my machines with no issues. Switched from McAfee, which I was having major issues with. I know at work, however, that we recently switched from Symantec (Norton) to Trend and I noticed an immediate improvement in my PC's performance there.
