Norton Internet Security 2004 review

Thursday 12 August 2004, 8:24 PM

Bad or Worse?


After a nearly eventless installation, upgrade from NIS 2003 on XP, it blocked all Internet access, including Live Update, without any indication in the logs or in the statistics.

Does not let me unselect the anti-spam, which I don't want or need (my ISP, Tierranet, provides a decent service). After deactivating it and removing the menu from Outlook, it keeps coming back.

Email support is slow and their advice seems to be irrelevant.

The uninstall instructions are horrifying.

If I don't get it resolved soon, I will try to get a refund.
