Norton 360 2.0

By (cnet.com)

Norton 360 v2 includes more native support for the Firefox browser; enhanced backup options; enhanced PC Tune Up; works great on clean, new machines running Windows Vista.

Norton 360 v2 can be hard to install on legacy machines; places a gadget in Windows Vista without asking; requires personal information for access to a technical support section that can be confusing; costly to use.

A near-perfect all-in-one solution for brand new PCs, Norton 360 v2 may be hard to install and run on legacy machines. However, don't count on Symantec's time-consuming and expensive technical support for help.

"Dissapointing"

By martinex (cnet.com)

I've trusted the symantec for about 10 years ... 

Immediate response to threats. Virus scanner still catches more than most programs.

A bit of a resource hog. Features available in earlier versions no longer available. No emergency boot disk or startup scans.
