Norton Antivirus 2010
Norton Antivirus 2010 is one of the widely popular antivirus software out there. Also touted as one of the best, Norton Antivirus is reasonably inexpensive, continually tries to improve their software and handles customer attention with very decent care.
At an average price of $39.99, those in the antivirus naysayer camp cannot dispute the price.
The scope of protection for Norton Antivirus is traditional signature based. Other software companies are so focused on new technologies but this software understands that fingerprinting and signature protection is just as crucial a means for conquering malware. One of the features distinguishable in Norton’s software is its Norton Insight Technology. This feature scans only the risky files and wastes no time in scanning trusted files so that time is lost.
Installation is very easy. And it starts the moment the software is downloaded. There are boxed versions for purchase at any brick and mortar store but for those who don’t wish to wait or have the inconvenience of taking a drive to buy it, Norton offers a direct download, too. Norton downloads with its own technology for a more straightforward job.
Norton Antivirus 2010 is a staple for any discerning computer user, whether expert or average. And in a series of tests, Norton did better than average job in detecting malware such as viruses, worms and Trojan horses. And it’s constantly getting better at the job as there is an influx of more products on the market (most not as efficient as Norton.)
Updates are quick and easy and take on average, between five and ten minutes to complete. They are often enough to remain updated and yet small enough so as to not slow down any one person’s software.
Customer support is superb and free.
Overall, Norton Antivirus 2010 is worth purchasing. And creates great piece of mind for a great price.
