Hi:I have Norton utilities into my system
Right now I bought-it last years. .Running win 98 1ST Editions.
all the utilities it work fine but the AV expire from norton after one years free update.AV 5.0 .

I know if you go to Norton's site and download the virus def, you should be able to keep them updated. You can no longer get program updates, but you can still keep your definitions up-to-date. So, if you prefer Norton, you may be able to keep it and save the $$$ on Innoculate it.

InnoculateIT personal addition is a free download, you must register with them but there isn't a time limit on auto updates. I have used InnoculateIT personal for 8 months now and I love it. It is small and doesn't try to take over your computer. I have also used Norton, I just like InnouclateIT better.

Same here. You can set it up to autodownload updates at startup, or you can manually do it yourself.

I've used Inoculate IT PE for about 1 1/2 yrs. with no problems , its a great program .Used Norton 2000 ( with some problems ) for a while and tried McAfee prior to that and didn't like it at all.I don't believe I ever had a virus get by Norton , but it seemed to require more resources and also seemed to conflict w/ some applications.

Hee at the shop we only use 2 AV programs. F-Prot which is not free and innoculate which is Free. Another one that is getting better is Sophos but it is not free. As far as removing Norton!!!! I always get nervous when ever I have to remove any Norton Progarm. Be careful when it tries to remove old files no longer needed. Norton is not too smart about what is needed.

InoculateIT 4.0 - Corporate version is even better that the Personal Edition. Very small not much memory usage and is excellent for server and e-mail protection.
If you are going to spend money on AV - InoculateIT is a great product.
Not sure why InoculateIT is free maybe to get a good client base and then start charging, just like McAfee did.

Yes, just got the e-mail, the InoculateIT program ends on the 7th, and becomes e Trust EZ Antivirus, a chargeable product with a special entry price for current users. We'll be able to continue to get signature file updates for InoculateIT.

CA has removed the Inoculate PE program from their web site. Does anyone here have a copy of it? I have been using it for about 1 1/2 years now but I have lost the install for it.

Yes you can just unisatll the Norton Anti Virus. What you may have to do is Uninstall the whole thing and then reinstall it choosing the custom setup option and select and deselect what you want. Check in start/program/norton and see if it has it's own seperate uninstall, as someone before stated be careful when it asks you about shared files. Tell it to leave them on the system otherwise it could cause problems with the other norton stuff you leave behind. <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

Nothing Beats Mcafee Antivirus...
How much time would it take for you to understand that Norton Su@#s!!!
It can't defend you from half the Viruses that Mcafee does.
