Title: A Word of Warning Post by: Chronos on June 05, 2008, 01:16:59 AM Never try to uninstall Norton.
If you come across a computer that has it, just turn it off and ignore it. It is for the best. Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: waylain16 on June 05, 2008, 01:32:01 AM Why you say that?
I have never had problems with it Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: Chronos on June 05, 2008, 02:00:26 AM I've tried two different Norton deinstallations, both from relatively okay systems.
It broke my computer installation both times, for no reason. The first one is an interesting story, I'll probably tell it sometimes. Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: waylain16 on June 05, 2008, 02:08:03 AM Sorry to hear that man
Just some bad luck What kind of machines you using? Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: Chronos on June 05, 2008, 02:12:55 AM Standard Windows Home.
Not hacked or anything. For some reason though, Norton hates 'em. Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: waylain16 on June 05, 2008, 02:18:07 AM I was referring to the brand of computer
ex. Dell, Gateway, and so on Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: Chronos on June 05, 2008, 02:22:12 AM Bah, Vaio.

Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: Chronos on June 06, 2008, 01:34:26 AM If you fuel your furnace with paper money just because you can, you probably do not need anti-virus. For the rest of us...
Title: Re: A Word of Warning Post by: Cameron07 on June 20, 2008, 09:22:10 PM yeah... norton blows... can be a real pain in the ars... i bought the new norton 360 off the internet for like 70 bucks... i installed it and everything.. worked fine for about a week.. even though i dont think it helps too much, but then it just uninstalled itself and wouldnt let me reinstall it...
