 Worst Mac Program I've Ever Used July 16, 2008
Every time I tried using Norton Antivirus to run a virus scan on a folder or drive, it crashed or froze. The few scans it did manage to perform never found a single virus, although the free ClamXAV managed to find several Windows viruses amongst the same files. I was running this on PowerPC's, not even Intel machines. It seems to slow the whole system down, even when you set the scanning to a minimum. I can't believe how much Norton charges for an antivirus program that not only doesn't even function, but whose virus update subscription runs out after a year. Luckily, I had gotten a free copy of this from work to try out. In the days of Mac Classic OS I used Norton products all the time, but I can't recommend any of them anymore. I uninstalled this from all my macs and will never use it again. It was pretty obvious when Norton stopped updating Disk Doctor that they lost all interest in supporting the Mac platform.
 Had No Problems, Felt Protected! January 3, 2008
I feel more protected with an anti-virus program running on my Mac. I did get a worm in my machine at one time and it was mailing out of my e-mail address book to Windows users. After that, I bought the Norton Anti-Virus program. It stopped the worm and isolated a virus when I accidentally hit on a bad website one day. I used this to upgrade after I got Tiger. It has worked and I gave it time before I reviewed the item.
Terrible software, worse customer service!!! November 15, 2007

I purchased Norton Internet Security 3.0 which includes Norton AntiVirus. I installed on my new Macbook pro. The software crashed my system and gave error messages on start-up and upon runnig. Only after multiple installs and 2 hours waiting for a customer service on their on-line chat, did they inform me that it does not work with OS 10!!! Nowhere during purchase do they note this significant draw-back and compatibility issue. You also can only talk to a representative by paying $9.95 and waiting. With the download, they only allow you to download during a two month period. After that if you would have to re-purchase the software to re-download.
Please be aware that poor Symantec website experience makes this a much more expensive product than it appears...... April 20, 2007

The product itself works fine during the year of purchase. However, the real trouble begins upon trying to renew your yearly subscription via Symantec website. As an American living overseas, I handle a large number of transactions on the web with excellent results... until I need to renew my Symantec (Norton) subscription. Even with the patient help of my credit card provider, I was not able to get the website to accept my information. And it leaves the consumer no reasonable option for getting support. Therefore, I am again buying a new package via Amazon, instead of the promised efficiency of renewal support at reduced prices through the Symantec website. This is the third time this type of situation has happened. And it's unique to Symantec, from my experience. As the whole value of this product is based on "pay higher price with initial purchase, but then pay low annual renewal fees for future years", the inability to renew makes this a much more expensive and much less convenient product than it initiatlly appears. I've reached my limit. I'm researching the competition now, and switching at my next opportunity. I honestly hope your experience is better than mine.
