   For MORONS like PKshadow, I didn't write the review below mine with the one star rating. As any idiot can see it has no signature or screen name. I will just chalk it up to the fact that he is from Cana Duh! Hey, do you know Bob?

   Input Overload you are absolutely correct.
   
   Ever since Symantec overhauled Norton Internet Security in 2009 it has been in my opinion the best. Don’t judge this software if you haven’t tried it since then.
   
   Bala7 doesn’t seems to think Norton is very good which his opinion. However his opinion doesn’t hold water since he believes personal attacks help him prove his point without facts to back his opinion up.
   
   Practically every Anti-Virus and Firewall test I see rates Norton highly with consistency.

   I do work in IT & have never had anything from Symantec, this is the UK & maybe things are different here.
   
   Regarding being a time served beta tester, what a laugh, no I'm not BUT: - As your fellow countryman Bob Dylan said - 'You Don't Need a Weatherman To Know Which Way The Wind Blows'
   
   Norton is as good as Av's get, though as I'm always trying new ideas @ the moment I'm running Webroot SmartSecurity, a cloud based AV based on Prevx & it's rather good.
   
   That does not mean Norton has suddenly become rubbish as it hasn't. I recently installed it on 3 PC's for a client without problem. Good software far removed from what it was 4 years ago - Move with the times you Luddites.
   
   @Bala7, I'm interested & intrigued what security do you deploy?
   
   To verify the above as you have a somewhat doubting nature I give you the auspicious privilege of viewing this PC desk.....

   So, you guys that seem to be the experts here and really hate Norton what is the best one out there? I've tested probably as many as you and I teach in IT, but I don't consider myself an expert in Security software. I've used NIS for a few years now and I haven't had any severe viruses in that time frame. Granted I don't visit a lot of sites that would give me viruses and such I think it's work fairly well, but I'm open to other suggestions. I've used in addition to NIS, Prevx. I now see that Webroot who bought Prevx has now released SecureAnywhere which is built around Prevx.

   Input Overload:
   By your own admission, you are not a trained beta tester but an electrical engineer. I reverse engineer/audit code for a living and we conduct penetration testing all day long. And I'm telling you 'real' hacker do not distribute their malware until it is certain their code can first corrupt Norton, McAfee and AVG.
   
   Despite your imbecilic retorts I do not believe you can possibly work in IT without Symantec kickbacks. But such is the power of belief. Additionally, I have never seen Norton clean even the most rudimentary rootkit. But who cares, as long as you believe.

   What you think?? Does NIS 2010 has proper Network Protection?
