Hi,

My computer have Symantec Norton Antivirus Corporate Version 10.1.4.400 & Symantec Client Firewall Version 8.7.4.79 installed. My system administrator told me that Symantec's antivirus software were among the worst commercial product in the market. Was my friend's comment true(His company used F-Secure product)? How F-Secure antivirus & internet security products compared to Symantec?

How Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition differs from other non-Corporate Edition (e.g. Norton AntiVirus 2007,2008)?

Tks!

You're going to find that opinions vary wildly on the effectiveness of anti-virus programs. Symantec/Norton has its detractors (and they are legion) but frankly, my wife and I have used it for a year now without any issues whatsoever. In the past it was a bloated memory hog but this issue has been resolved. As for F-Secure... it's a decent program but certainly not any better than Symantec. Put these two programs into Google and include the words review and rate. You'll discover that while both are decent anti-virus programs, Norton generally comes out on top.

I am in agreement with James. There is an extensive comparison of the top ten AV programs.
I, personally, have not used Norton for nearly 10 yrs., but from the list, any of the top ten AV programs would be suitable.

Ah... Fulvio. Are we friends again?

James,
you have, always, been friends, except when our opinions differ too much.
We are pretty stubborn, aren't we?

Yeah... we are, Fulvio. But we go back quite a ways and while I tease you from time to time, I consider you my friend. Yes... I tease my wife too and she generally puts me in my place very quickly. Seriously, I only wish you well, Fulvio. Take care.
