Good for Yama Tough for showing the world how inept Norton is at computer security.
To: Red Badger
Not to condone theft of IP, but maybe someone can now figure out what makes it darn near impossible to remove all traces of Nortons useless crapware from a PC!

Loaded NAV up once. Slowed my system down to a damned snails pace. Deleted it immediately....never again.

Crap. I have norton on my dell xps, today I shut the computer down, and it won’t start back up. It doesn’t get by the initial startup. I wonder if this is related...

It reduces victims of hacking by being such an annoyance that people shut their computers off and use the telephone.

Say what you will, but I generally leave my computers unprotected against the horrible outside world.
In general, it’s worked fine. I don’t open unknown attachments and I’m somewhat careful what sites I click to. I only pay with credit cards, knowing that a fake charge will be dealt with by the credit card, with little or no risk to me. One time, a non-computer savey friend picked up a a root kit. Yes, it was a pain to get rid of it (I needed a clean computer to advise me), but I did.
Other than no problems. My computers run MUCH FASTER without that garbage watching them.

Maybe it's not a matter of poor security, it's H1B workers. Hundreds of thousands here.. some are bound to have ulterior motives.
I just hope that PC hasn't made it possible for them to work on our most valuable defense systems.. but certainly it appears that secrets are finding their way overseas.
