Re: Computer security
I use Norton for no other reason than that was part of the package when I bought our first PC in the days of "Freeserve" now Orange of course.
Currently following updates/upgrades I have Norton 360 but in the last week, warnings have kept appearing suggesting my security is at risk because I do not have "Sonar advanced protection". I have clicked on the "FIX" space and it tells me to go through a procedure that seems to involve uninstalling the present security and subsequently installing a new Norton version.
I am told that I have 115 days left before renewing my subscription and had already decided to change to possibly one of the free systems ie AVG or Avast when expiry comes.
Searching online about "Sonar advanced protection", there are sites containing complaints about the issue with one saying that he/she uninstalled and installed the new version with no improvement. There is also comment that it is not always easy to uninstall Norton if you want to end your relationship.
When I tried to login to "My Account" my password was not accepted and a new one was arranged. Initially it worked OK but today it doesn't and I can't seem to get the "forgot your password" procedure to work. I will keep trying as the sooner I can now uninstall and replace Norton with something else, the better.
Does anyone else on the Forum have Norton and if so what is your experience?
