Norton 2010 Engine Update - Performance Improvement?

Just read the change log, they mention 17.5 Improved overall performance., did anyone has any experience on this?

 

to be honest the newest version imo is slower on the system than before. i see more lag than before and this is with more than one system though its very slight. its not at all bad but i do feel it more now..

 

.
17.5 contains many changes and fixes from the previous version. Some of these changes include:

Changelog as posted on the NIS Forum:

- Fixed issue with Scheduled Scans after performing a Seamless Upgrade from the 2008 version.
- Corrected various instances where ccSvcHst.exe would crash.
- Improved overall performance.
- Corrected an issue where localized characters would be displayed in Security History.
- Improvements to the User Interface when using Netbook Edition.
- Fixed an issue where Outlook Express would switch to Offline Mode when using Norton AntiSpam.
- Corrected an issue where Norton AntiSpam may cause Email headers to parse incorrectly.
- Fixed an issue where a 3040,40113 error may occur after installing the Norton Add-On Pack.
- Fixed various issues submitted through WinQual

 

Installed NIS yesterday and got this product update not any visible slowdowns so far actually I didn't even see any improvements either actually I was away from NIS for quite sometime so I don't know its bugs or errors.

 

works wonderfully here as well..............

 

I have not found any performance improvement in my system.

 

Actually norton safe search now is compatible with FF v3.6 the previous 17.1.X wasn't

 

.
Yes, they have the toolbar working again in FF 3.6. The Norton IPS plugin is still being worked on. By the way, what's the Norton IPS plugin?

 

Actually I think the IPS is the more important plug-in - Intrusion Prevention System plug-in.

 

Yeah it is the intrusion prevention plug-in
