Summary: The best security suite around
Comment: I'm going to keep it short: NIS 2009 is fast, light on computer resources, simple to use (maybe even excessively so), unobtrusive and has an excellent (in my own personal experience) support (including an automated update function which allows the program to download the updated signatures averagely every 5 minutes or so).
Together with Kaspersky Internet Security the best choice on the market.

Summary: Disappointed
Comment: Having used Norton with no problems for the first 3 years with this computer, I was quite happy to stay with Norton and installed Norton Internet Security 2009 1-3 users upgrade. Easy to install, and also installed on the laptop which my daughter uses.
Unfortunately after 1 month it stopped updating on both computers, leaving them (and me) at risk. Norton were very helpful and remotely reinstalled the product. But the same thing happened again. Having spent a great deal of time trying to solve this problem I decided to cut my losses and try another product - with no problems.
Amazon were very, very helpful and refunded the purchase and postage on return of the product.

Summary: Best Norton Internet Security so far
Comment: I have used Norton Internet Security software for the last 4 years. I did not like 2007 as it crashed my computer alot and also slow it down. (was free) move up to 2008 was much better than 2007, but still slowed down my computer and I did not like not knowing how much data live update was downloading. It also was not great at removing spyware. This 2009 version is like a completly different piece off software, its faster, easier to set up, everything is a lot clearer and it does it job well. If you are still using an older version upgrade now even if your subscription has not run out yet. Just use your old key until it does, then enter the new key.

Summary: Faster!
Comment: I have been using Norton for the past 5 years, buying the latest upgrade each time. This time I was more cautious due to the many speed issues reported with the 2008 version, suffered also by my parents who had to remove Norton 08 due to 'start up' times that were close to 10 minutes.
However I had not had any noticeable speed issues and having read several reviews on various PC Magazine sites that were commending Norton on the reduced 'weight' of the 2009 version I decided to remain loyal and bought the upgrade from Amazon - which as usual was the best price and was delivered quickly.
It installed within about 10 minutes without any fuss whatsoever and the start up and close down of my computer is noticeably quicker than before with the scans being much faster.

Summary: A Loyal Norton User
Comment: This has been 6 years that I've been using Norton. I feel safe going online with it and have never had a virus dispite surfing the net everyday. People have often complained to me that Norton slows down their PC. Well in the past it has affected mine, but it was a small price to pay. This new version however is a much less bulky program and hardly affects the PC at all. I have it on 2 Acer laptops too and they are far from high performance. They still run like a dream. You can't go wrong with this program for your family computers. Buy It.
