Review by NorthStar
I’ve been using Norton for about 10 or 11 years now and I haven’t had a virus in all that time. It seems to get easier to use every year, but I’m generally familiar with their format, even though it does change a bit from year to year. I really like this new version and the capability to cover 5 devices. I’m pretty careful online and don’t think I operate in a high risk way, but I know it’s possible to get a virus even with a virus protection plan. I like Norton because it seems to be a pretty good watchdog for my computer. That said, it does slow my computer down a little, but I don’t do any online gaming so it’s not really a big deal for me. it has also caught some malware and viruses that I would have missed without it and that is why I keep going back to it. I’ve had a lot of experience dealing with people who define themselves as computer illiterate and defer to their husband or their children for anything on the computer and strongly recommend it for people who can’t or won’t do anything on their own to optimize their PC’s performance. And if you have a problem and need help customer support is excellent.
My one complaint is the renewal price being so much more than just buying it new again, so every year I just uninstall and reboot and install anew. Think how happy you’d be if you could do that with your cable plan.
