Fed Up With Norton's

[stickmaker]

Finally gave up and uninstalled Norton's. It's been bugging for six weeks to update my subscription, which still has two weeks to go. It's also been blocking things it was specifically and repeatedly told not to block - which it didn't used to block - and hiding the flag window telling me it was blocking those things unless I granted special dispensation under everything else, so I didn't see what it was doing until I closed or minimized everything else.

Now that it's gone, I'm flooded with updates it was blocking and not even flagging me about!

No more Norton's for me!

I use Microsoft Security Essentials. It's a free download, and it seems to be doing a good job.

I have Macs.

Ah. Slight problem. But I *think* F-prot has a version for that. Can't hurt to check.
