View Full Version : Renew Norton?
TripleTee 16-06-07, 10:44 PM Your internet threat protection will expire in 26 days!
Renew your subscription...bla bla bla
so I tried renewing
Renewal for $49.99
what exactly is this?
You need to pay for renewals?
yasirb51 16-06-07, 10:46 PM yeh of course you pay yearly for the software or it will turn off !
if you dont wana pay get a crack or something ! :p
i think sum1 here can help you ! :)
NiGhTFaCe 16-06-07, 10:48 PM Why pay for a software which is overrated & almost a crap?!
Get a free one, maybe avast! (http://avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html)
yasirb51 16-06-07, 10:50 PM ^ my thought exactly ! :)
but its the most well known one which is why i guess ppl mostly use it though its not THAT good and many other software are better and are for free !
NiGhTFaCe 16-06-07, 10:55 PM Well known doesn't make it the best. Some people can't really tell when it comes to this.
Nortan's aim is server protection more than releasing good softwares for home use.
Thug4Life 16-06-07, 11:14 PM Avast indeed rules!

I have Norton as well .. I thought of changing it to another one ..
So , Do you think avast is better than Norton ?!
TripleTee 16-06-07, 11:38 PM it's home edition...
won't work on windows professional edition would it?
NiGhTFaCe 17-06-07, 01:01 AM LosT_SouL, much better! I have never faced a problem with viruses since I installed it.
TripleTee, the edition of your Windows being Home or Professional has nothing to do with the version of avast!, unless we are talking about software compatibility, which isn't the case here.
So you can simply install it!
TripleTee 17-06-07, 01:04 AM it worked... thank you
i3u00n_ildenya 17-06-07, 07:06 AM I also downloaded it, thanks a lot. :cute:
Big Deal 17-06-07, 02:05 PM Just buy a Mac....No problems such as this..lol, when will people realize that.. :P
I dumped Norton 6 years ago and have never looked back.
AVG has not let in a single virus since then.

AVG is the best and I have been using it for months now. It has a built-in Firewall and spyware scanner. And the best thing is, its not effective, but you don't feel its even there :p
AVG RULESSSSSSSSSSSSS!
look at this report that have been made on feb 2007 that might help you to decide which is better.

Marvel, I don't know about that. But I am very satisfied with AVG so far. I had this stupid Godzilla worm and Kaspersky and Avast didn't detect or delete it. I got AVG, and tried it myself. And AVG got rid of it.
And as I said, no anti-virus is 100%, but considering the resources others consume, AVG rules!
NiGhTFaCe 18-06-07, 01:40 AM I had this stupid Godzilla worm and Kaspersky and Avast didn't detect or delete it.
Godzilla was a malware & not a worm/virus. avast! is just an anti virus, even though myself I never got Godzilla in my computer at the first place.
Well there you go. Another reason to use AVG :p It even detects malware which avast! and Kaspersky overlook. Btw, Godzilla is very annoying so it can't be take lightly.
