    With Software Virtuallization Agent (previous Altiris SVS) you do not have to install in a clean machine unless you want to creat a "package and use it on other machines.

    I just tried signing up and was unable to get past the info screen (created a new account). Maybe the website does not like Opera Browser.

    I really do not like Symantec so perhaps its just as well.

    Same happened to me. I think they have problems with their servers or they are updating them.

    ps. If you want pm me and I'll send it to you.

    You can't install the likes of TrueImage or Paragon inside this type of virtual layer since they need to operate on a level outside the operating system.This type of software is intended for installing standard programs that don't require the installation of drivers or access to the mbr,etc.As for installing programs that require a reboot they may or may not work correctly.I've done this by configuring the layer to start automatically (right click menu when you highlight a package) and it has worked but there are no guarantees.
