Symantec didn't add any earth-shattering content within NIS The least-impressive new feature is Outbreak Alert, which informs you of rapidly spreading virus threats and recommends download updates. However, Norton AntiVirus already offered automatic downloads of new signature files through its LiveUpdate feature, so the new Outbreak Alert, it seems, is merely for show. Unfortunately, in NIS , not everything works well.

The tech after a few preliminaries asked me to turn off Norton for about a half hour and try connecting. I did and was able to connect. So it was norton blocking it, but I didn't want to be connecting without protection. I also ran adaware SE and spybot but was unable to connect to update them, but was able to have them just check what was already there--and later after I was able to update and run them again they didn't find any thing.
I tried turning off the computer--it even hung during the shutdown of XP. The first time I waited and then after turning it back on it still didn't work. The second time when it did that when trying to shut down, I forced it to manually shut down. Then when I turned it on and opened Firefox it wrote new rules for it and it worked. I had to do the same thing again to shut down, forcing it and then turning on and then opening Eudora to get it to write new rules. I wrote to Symantec and the tech wanted me to remove everything from the start up menu--I kid you not.
I was under the impression that you need to leave a couple of very important things or the computer won't work right. Even their website said to leave a necessary windows program and protection programs. On top of all this, I had been told by a clerk at CompUSA who seemed to be pretty knowledgable that Norton can be very hard to remove once its installed. So from what he was saying, it has protective features, I guess supposedly to keep malicious programs or something from disabling it, but apparently they can make it really hard to remove it.
I don't know for sure, that is what he told me, and like I said, he seemed to know what he was talking about. So I went ahead at that time and bought the full version as my 90 day trial of the was running out. I wish that I had stuck with the version. I don't think it had the problems. And I turned off the anti spam since it didn't seem to be working and it seemed like it might be part of what was slowing things as it scanned all the email.

Secure VPN helps protect your online privacy by blocking intrusive activities like tracking or controlling your online activities or location by Internet service providers, mobile carriers, advertisers, and websites. A Virtual Private Network VPN creates a private network within a broader network, adding security by using encryption and tunneling mechanisms. And this number is growing. Additionally, each country has at least two servers, so you won't always connect to the same IP or data center when you turn on the VPN and connect to any specific region.
In addition, with the evolving threats facing consumers as well as the proliferation of free public Wi-Fi, the timing is right to provide consumers with a strong trusted VPN-focused product like Norton Secure VPN. Connecting your device to a password-protected Wi-Fi access point does not protect your data as it is broadcast from your device to the hotspot. Passwords on Wi-Fi access points only ensure authorized users are connecting to the hotspot. So, your data may be at risk as it traverses the airwaves between your device and the hotspot.
Also, if you are using public Wi-Fi where all users have access to the same password, it may not be secure from hackers and snoops.
Free is not always free. Often, free VPN products trade your information to help offset their costs. Norton Secure VPN does not impose data or bandwidth limits or advertisements on you. An unlimited data and bandwidth VPN service has significant ongoing costs.
Those costs are necessary to ensure your privacy. We also offer a day money-back guarantee for annual subscriptions if users are not satisfied with the product.
