You're speaking of their current and future behaviour while judging it on software from their past on a SINGLE system -> yours. Your whole post...
Norton AV/IS pops up a registration nag screen which can't be closed when you install the trial.
I agree too, but is it any worse than Norton which finished in first place?
Just got an update notice today, but there's no update in the changelog. The main installer has a different size than the Nov. update and has a...
I can't imagine that POS catching anything. It was always the first thing I disabled whenever I installed PF/DSA.
