    That's the same reason I don't use Eset password manager. I probably have over 200 passwords saved in Keepass. If I used a password manager that is part of an AV then it would be a very time consuming and tedious job to transfer all those passwords to another password manager if I wanted to use a different AV. It's best to use an application that is only a password manager and nothing else. I'm happy with Keepass and it's free.

    You're kidding me, right? What did they do, get kids in pre school to have a contest on the best drawing for the logo? :argh:
    I believe Norton could have come up with something better.

    Yeah, it looks pretty amateurish. Good to see they're spending time on important stuff like a new logo and not wasting time addressing customers concerns about being bombarded with annoying pop ups and listening to feedback about their new password manager UI and functionality.

    It's one of the many antiviruses on my test PC, but it's been a few years since I've used it as my main antivirus.

    Gotcha. I would not mind running it if it did not have issues and now with the crypto stuff, no way.

    In Australia, we don't have access to any of the recent extra features - such as crypto, added yet.

    From what I can find they have been on version 22 for at least 7 years now. If you like it then run it, but it seems like a dead product to me.

    Agree. Wanting to give it a go as some other products are not playing nice with my pc. Protection is still pretty good from what I have read as well. Seems like a lot of people left for various reasons.

    Thanks @TheBear

    That is definitely a long time for sure! It has not been that long for me, I would say I have tried in maybe with the last 5 years? I honestly do not remember.
