What's up crew?

I just wanted to give a short review on the latest from Norton Internet Security 2010.

The interface of this product seems very simple to me. Not sure your average user could understand it or would try to understanding it. I like the fact that one of the features tracks your cpu and on board memory usage. It also has a feature called SONAR protection. It's kinda of complex to a degree. I've been working with it for about 5 hours adjusting some settings here and there. It's a big file at 80 mb. so be aware.

One thing I did notice while scanning my PC it didn't suck up my resources like the old Norton programs used to do. I did a full scan and it was quick. I have a ton of data on my hard drives too.

It scanned my entire system in like 35 minutes while I was video editing and throwing some major tasks at my system during scan time.

I have to admit it's pretty impressive. +1 for Norton 2010! :)

Thank you for the review. For years I've had to move clients off Norton because Norton caused the very problems it was supposed to prevent. (E.G. Unable to use ones own machine) I'm thinking that the new Norton may be OK but I'm still slow to adopt and recommend.
