    no I tested you either got a free license or you have to pay full price, since I tested & did have a lot of imput I was disappointed that I didn't get the freebee but that's ok

    It's not really that wierd - most security software allows free upgrades if your license is still active.

    Is there a shell extension in NIS 2009?

    Yes, but it feels strange to buy NIS 2008 AGAIN, for a lower price, to use the key with NIS 2009. Don't know. Think it's not the way it was meant to be... ;)

    Can you set NIS/NAV to let you decide what to do with a threat instead of automatically removing it?

    Norton 2009 is very good, but personally I wouldn't bet on the lat one.

    The streaming/pulse updates were working great yesterday - was auto updating my defs every few minutes. Longest time I noticed inbetween updates was 9 minutes.

    Computer's been on all night/day today, and the last update was 7 hours ago.
    LiveUpdate is not finding any new updates and I don't appear to be receiving any new streaming defs.

    This is happening on both of my machines with NIS2009 on. Can anyone confirm?

    1 hour ago is too long though. The whole idea of the streaming defs are to bring updates every 5-15 minutes. This is what was happening yesterday.

    Strange enough, when I click on "1 hour" it says the last update was at 11:56 (European time, about 4 hours ago...)

    :doubt:

    The streaming def's may come from a different server, because I've already been able to download a phishing database update successfully from running LiveUpdate manually.

    Hello,

    Does the new version of norton support archive cleaning instead of deleting the entire archive. Can it automatically delete/disinfect infected files in RAR/7Zip,etc archiveso_O

    Yes. You can set the automatically delete threats to off.

    Nope, but you can scan whatever you like from within the scan part of NIS. Files, folders, dirs, etc.

    Can anyone say for a fact that NIS 2007 licenses will work with NIS 2009? Has anyone actually done it?
