A Big Relief After struggling for months with the dreadful Norton 360, I'm so glad that I've managed to find a stable, simple, non-infuriating security system which doesn't slow my PC to a crawl.

That is untill about a week ago my PC started to shut off the firewall after about 5mins!!! After much messing about I checked the versions on each machine I had 1.5 and the two laptops 2.0!! How is it... more info
