ATT Yahoo DSL offers Norton Antivirus suite "free" with their DSL service (approximately a $40 one time cost and $20 annual renewal)!
ATT Yahoo used to offer CA (Computer Associates) package. This change went unnoticed until I checked for program updates.
I think that Norton is the "gold standard" for home / small business security software. If your machine has a "low horsepower cpu" (less than 1.6 Ghz and less then 1 gig memory) perhaps Norton is not fo you. I am running a P4 3.06 Ghz cpu with 2.5 gigs of memory and Norton has not been a resource issue on this machine.
My installation experiance: smooth untill the first Live Update, message = "LU1812 an update failed to install"!
Message said,
"wait two weeks and then run LiveUpdate again. In most cases, Symantec will re-publish an updated version of the patch within that time. Keep in mind that Automatic LiveUpdate will continue to download critical security updates while you are waiting, so you are still protected during this time. If you still cannot install the patch in two weeks, then click the "What if this didn't work?" link at the bottom of this article."
If you are having this same problem please e-mail me SanDiegoCIO@gmail.com. If there is enough intrest I will post the fix!
