Review by Michael Kerner

There is absolutely no question that these days it is much harder to absolutely find the right security software to meet all of your personal needs. These days, with so many more people falling victim of hacking, and trying to find the right new protection is much harder than met the eye. There are just so many brands of security software that have worked in the past, and unfortunately does not work in the way want to deliver. Norton has been unfortunately one of those brands that used to work so successfully, and unfortunately, they leave more clutter onto the hard drive, without much there to safeguard you in the long run from any damages. Norton’s Security Software Deluxe, works fairly well if you have multiple PC’s to protect and if you do want a brand that is more of a brand name. Unfortunately, it doesn’t really work that well in the long run. You only get one year’s worth of protection, and it doesn’t hold up for the long run. It can work at first, but later on can clog your PC and prevent you from loading new software, because of Norton’s backing up so much for the computer hard disk drive. While it is a good buy if you are wanting it for the short run, there are other brands do much more in the long run, and save you a lot of money in the process. If you want a antivirus that works in the long run, you are better off getting a lesser-known brand like Bitdefender or Vipre, which they both work just as well and some cases better than the major brand names. Still, if you really want one major brande name, than maybe you would want to try Norton.
