Norton antivirus - YP. - 12-05-2012

I have norton antivirus on my computer, and its fairly good.
But its not very user freindly.
I have problems making it not deleting some programs which are trusted and for hacking.


Anyone else using norton?
Thoughs on this antivirus program Smile

Turn it off when using hack tools. Plus you shouldn't really use them. Use backtrack, or blackbuntu.

I've heard bad things about Norton. I stick to MS Security Essentials and Malwarebytes.

MSSE is awful, I recommend a combination of Avast and Malwarebytes. Norton is very good just Avast is more user-friendly.

Holy shit. Did you just say Norton is good? O.O Holy gawd. The detection rate is horrendous and the firewall is a friggin' joke... It's also heavy for no apparent reason other than it sucks. Malwarebytes, AVG and Spybot Search and Destroy FTW.

My favorite is anti-virus is NOD32, good detection rate and uses little CPU.


RE: Norton antivirus - The High Roller - 12-05-2012

I don't like antiviruses but NOD32 is indeed the best I have used.

Avast is good too, but I recommend you to try Malwarebytes or better, NOD32.

So what you guys are saying is that norton isnt really a good program?
