All systems go with Norton 2009!
Win a Trip to space!
Symantec, makers of Norton products such as Norton 360, Norton Internet Security, and Norton AntiVirus are offering consumers the chance to win a trip to space to celebrate their 2009 product launch! Unfortunately this isn’t open to Irish consumers.

This competition ties in with the 2009 campaign “Smart Security, Engineered for Speed” which focuses on the improvements made in Norton 2009 to make the products even lighter on resources and faster than ever before. Norton also have some pretty aggressive claims this year such as 1 minute install and free support in some countries.
I can tell you that Norton have been pretty hurt by the slow perception of their products over the last few years. Granted this was true in 2006 but the latest products have a very low impact on system resources. There’s alot of free products in the market today such as AVG, ZoneAlarm etc and you can of course patch together your own homemade solution but does this really give you confidence that you’re secured? You have install multiple solutions from multiple software companies which means more resources running in the background which deliver updates at different times! The bottom line is that i want to install a security product and get on with my work. no nags, no update issues, no worries.
