Review by #1 Amazon Fan

I have been using an assortment of Norton & Symantec products for years and while I have had some issues with them at times, overall I prefer their software over all others. There is a reason Norton (aka Symantec) is the industry leader - they are more consistent, more robust, and more stable than most other products on the market today.

That being said, I would not recommend this specific product for the average user. It provides antivirus only and no additional protecion, e.g. firewall, etc. I recommend Norton 360 instead, as it covers all aspects of security for an individual home-based computer possible for a piece of software.

I do like how Symantec has started providing multiple licenses (sometimes for devices, sometimes for users) to help lower the overall total cost of ownership.

If you already have a firewall (software or hardware based) and are precautious with the sites you browse, etc. then the antivirus functionality of this product will work great for you. I have a 2 layer firewall system in my house and security software on a server which protects my network from most malicious sites. As such, I only want to run a single-purpose program for my antivirus and this product fits the bill perfectly.
