All In One 
2008-07-23
One of the easiest programs ever developed. Does the work of a firewall, anti-virus, email spam, internet security and more. Replaced 3 programs and runs real nice in the background. My only complaint is it slows down closing a web window for some reason. Other then that the easiest program to use.
Don't do auto renewal 
2008-07-13
I used this product for a year, and had checked the sutomatic renewal. I cancelled the product, because it's really not worth it, and they still billed me. I'm now into week 2 of trying to get my money back, apparently they can't even access their own records, so I need to recreate their database so they can pay me back. A security firm that steals your money, not a good combination. If you do buy this product, and I'm not sure why you would, DON'T sign up for the auto renewal, you won't be able to stop it.
Amazon Reviews are always accurate 2008-07-07
I purchased this product first and then read the reviews on Amazon. I decided to continue on with the installation procedure against my better judgement. This is what happened.
1. One day after installation my computer started rebooting unexpectly and displaying a messsage from windows.
2. Next, I couldn't get into any of my programs.
3. Best Buy said that Windows was damaged and I had to reinstall. Good thing I had my files backed up online...Nope. The back up didn't take...although I was given the green light by the program.
4. The tech tried but he only could reinstall the program back onto my computer...Hip hip Hooray...I only lost my children's photos, my lesson plans, and all the info I has stored for my church...but at least I still have the program that wiped out my hard labor.
Overall a good program 
2008-06-20
I have used this product for two years now and pretty much have not had any issues. I might of re-installed once or twice but it is an easy program to run. The feature I used the most was the parental control and the optimize drive and performance options. Don't need to be a computer genius to use it like some other programs I have seen. For the features this has, the price was right ($52.00). Another great thing is that you can use it on up to 3 computers.
Norton's Money Back Guarantee is a LIE 2008-06-10
I wish I had read these reviews before my purchase, but instead I quickly found out on my own that this software was unusable and needed to return. The package has a 60-day money back guarantee with a website for return information. I followed the instructions precisely and after 2 months of nothingness, I contacted the company. They did everything but give me my money back. They gave me the phone run around, tranferring me to several different representatives, and asking me to wait for several weeks. After the phone round, I got another round of email run-around. To show that they are serious about improving their customer service, they contacted me via email to notify me that they closed my account and request to rate their customer service. I promptly reminded them that my account should not have been closed and nothing has been resolved. They promptly ignored me. I lost $69.99 plus tax.

Avoid - Poorly Designed Product 2008-05-26
This is a reasonable product let down by moronic failings. it is so frustrating, it's fit to be ripped off my PC. Here are a few of the crazy stupid things:
1. you can schedule the backup tool, but IT WON'T RUN at the schedule time. Instead it waits for you to acknowledge the previous AV scan first. This means (duh!) that that backup runs during the working day, ie when you get a chance to acknowledge the scan. Moronic!
2. the scan picks up tracking cookies every time and states these need to be dealt with BUT OFFERS NO WAY OF DEALING WITH THEM. Moronic!
3. there is no way to schedule the temporary files cleanup - so your PC is stated as "being at risk" until you manually do this. It this total rubbish! Of course my PC is NOT at risk just because I have a few days of temp files hanging around... and how about some way to schedule the cleanup? Moronic!
4. the backup function can be cancelled in the first 30 seconds, but as long as it STARTS this moronic product thinks you are protected. Of course, it should wait until the backup is FINISHED SUCCESSFULLY before flagging you as green. Moronic!
5. It fails to integrate with the Windows Security Console correctly - my machine first states I am green (ie OK) because I have a firewall running... then I drill in and it complains that I have TWO firewalls running... then I drill in further and it complains that the Windows firewall is NOT running. Now part of this problem may be down to the moronic MSFT Security Console... but some of the blame sits with SYMC. Moronic!
6. The IP scan knocks other PCs off the network. Moronic!
Plus, it slows your PC to a crawl during any activity. So, avoid / avoid / avoid.
Don't waste your money the way I did 2008-05-25
This program is an unbelievable resource hog. The first time I un-installed it was because it brought my computer to its knees with its scans, even though I told it to perform a full scan only at 2:00 AM. I, like many other computer users, use my computer for work. Not making a deadline because I can't get my computer back is completely unacceptable.
I contacted tech support only to get suggestions about performance-tuning my brand new laptop. I know companies don't like to think their software could be the source of the problem, but I described the entire situation, including details about how everything was fine once Norton informed me that the scans had finished, and I was told to perform tasks such as check my disk for errors.
Finally, I've just attempted to install it again, at which point Norton said there was a more recent installation (2008), which I elected to download. Per its support program, I uploaded the log because the installation crashed, and it gave me a laundry list of ineffectual solutions.
I read many professional reviews, and it is clear that such reviewers really need to keep a product on their machine for several weeks, not just a couple of hours, and then write a review. At first, everything seems fine. Then the horror begins. I have 303 days left on my subscription and am simply out that money plus the $80 I paid for the program. Do not waste your money the way I did.
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SECURITY SOFTWARE AVAILABLE. I LOVE IT 2008-05-25
This software is second to none. I run a complete scan of my computer first thing every morning then Webroot Spysweeper WITHOUT the virus protection and then Webroot Window Washer before I do any work on my computer and I have not had any problems with my computer for almost 2 years. If you use a computer regularly, you know that 2 years without any problems at all is remarkable. The combination of these 3 programs run in the order that I mentioned was recommended to me by one of the specialists in this field from PC Magazine. Norton 360 is by far the best of them all and has alot of security features as well as a few special features. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NORTON 360. IMPORTANT---Just before I shut down my computer for the day, I run Webroot Window Washer again and it completely cleans all the junk that my computer has collected durning the course of the day. It is amazing. If I have a day when I am on the Internet alot, when window washer is done with its clean up scan, there have been times that it has cleaned up and removed as much as 100+ MB of junk from my hard drive as well as all traces of the websites I visited. Can you imagine just 50 MB of junk per day piling up on your hard drive. Window Washer removes all of that and gives you that space back in the process. I will never change my routine. I am very happy and so is my computer.

Norton 360 - just what I needed 
2008-05-22
What I like about Norton 360 is that is keeps my registrey file cleaned up. Other aspects are great as well. The only thing I don't like about it is that when I first boot, it takes forever for me to gain control of my computer. But what price safety!
