What our customer's say!

"WORRIED and WARY OF NORTON!", This software worries me. After almost four years of experiencing abuse to my computer system and the related loss of critical data, I have become extremely wary of Norton.

I will be filing a formal complaint with my State's Consumer Protection Division to investigate this product and Norton's methods of coercing users to renew their product, quickly on an annual basis.

I have been using Norton anti-virus protection on my computer for at least 3 years.

Since then, I have noticed a pattern of serious computer crashes within a few days of the annual product expiration date.

The cost of repair each time runs me about $150.00. So year after year, I rush to purchase the new product update.

Until this year, I wondered about the pattern of annual crashes, then was forced to conclude that my observation of the correlation of serious/expensive computer crashes and its timing was not random, but predictable.

How did I draw my conclusion?

My spouse's computer is protected with Norton. We do not share the same product copy. I predicted on September 10, 2007 that her computer would have a very serious Crash within a few days of the expiration date of the Norton Product. On September 18, 2007, about two or three days after receiving the expiration date notice it Crashed.

Now bear in mind that, the computer in question is not frequently used.

In 2006, I was forced to replace my laptop,due to my Norton experience. I wondered then about the pattern, but simply dismissed it.

Well this year, I will ask the Consumer Protection Division in my State's Attorney General's Office to look into the pattern of the problem observed and help to verify if the problem is more widespread.


"Nightmare to uninstall ", Poorly designed and created more problems than it solved such as internal computer errors. I could not install any other software nor could I uninstall Norton 2007 Systemworks. Stay away from this antivirus software . There is better antivirus software available. I will never buy Norton again.

"SystemWorks slowed my computer to a CRAWL", For years I trusted Norton for virus protection... no complaints there. When I went to upgrade about a year ago, I was offered to add SystemWorks for a considerably reduced price. Since my computer was a couple years old, I figured it might be good to help fix some of the annoying problems and help keep everything running well. In fact, SystemWorks consumed tons of needed resources and never did offer that many useful or practical solutions to my daily computing needs. The most amazing discovery was that after uninstalling this program (after almost a year) my computer seemed suddenly fast again. What a disappointment! Avoid!

"RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!", Symantec has become toxic! I don't know what I am going to use this year, but it will have nothing to do with Norton or Symantec.

I have used Norton products since the days of Peter Norton's Utilities for DOS 3.x. I have been a professional in the world of PC's and MAC's since before there were PC's or MAC's. I have recommended a lot of Symantec products over the years because a) they were better-behaved than some [notably McAfee], b) they offered more useful tools than most, and c) the different pieces worked well together -- which cannot always be said of installations built from several different vendors' products, even though each one might be superior to the comparable Symantec offering.

That has all changed. The basic issue is that it is simply not possible -- without a high level of expertise -- to run security, backup, and optimization products without occasionally making use of the vendor's product support. Even with a high level of expertise, product support can be important.

REALLY BAD PRODUCT SUPPORT WITH PRODUCTS LIKE NORTON UTILITIES, PERSONAL FIREWALL, ANTI-VIRUS, ETC. CAN BE HIGHLY TOXIC TO YOUR PC! FOR SEVERAL YEARS, SYMANTEC SUPPORT HAS BECOME PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. BELIEVE ME WHEN I TELL YOU THAT THE FOLKS IN MUMBAI OR PESHAWAR OR WHEREVER THEY ARE PHYSICALLY LOCATED FOR SYMANTEC SUPPORT ARE A VERY LONG WAY FROM BEING TOP DRAWER. THEY ARE A VERY LONG WAY FROM BEING ADEQUATE.

THE ADVICE THAT YOU RECEIVE FROM THEM STANDS A DECENT CHANCE OF PERMANENTLY CRIPPLING YOUR PC, AND THEY WILL NOT HAVE THE FIRST CLUE HOW TO FIX ANY OF IT.

STANDARD ANSWERS #1 - 10 FROM SYMANTEC SUPPORT ARE ALL THE SAME. REMOVE THEIR SOFTWARE USING THEIR REMOVAL TOOL, WHICH LEAVES BEHIND A MYRIAD OF DIRECTORY ENTRIES AND ODD FILES THAT THEY WILL USE TO RESTORE THE MESS THEY MADE IF YOU EVER UPGRADE ... AND THEN UPGRADE TO THEIR LATEST VERSION (SOUND OF CASH REGISTER HERE!)

There is only one Norton/Symantec product that I will continue to use ... Norton Ghost ... and that in an older version for as long as I can.

Why? Restoring a system hard drive to a known good condition via Norton Ghost is the only 100% effective cure that I have ever found for a) software that botches its own installation, b) software that botches other programs when you install it, c) THE APPLICATION OF THE SOLUTIONS PROVIDED BY SYMANTEC SUPPORT ... AS I RECENTLY DISCOVERED MYSELF.

Even Norton Ghost, in order to be effective, requires some knowledge and planning. The average user who puts everything on one hard drive and does not back up user data separately or who does not know what user data is required in order to preserve e-mail, etc. will experience more difficulty.

Man the lifeboats! Women and children first! The good ship Symantec seems to have hit an iceberg!

"NOT FOR VISTA!!", Having used SystemWorks for years with XP, I was quite surprised to find that the 2007 version will not work with Vista- even though one of the advertisers on Amazon claimed compatibility!

Read this reviews before You buy...

"AWFUL", I feel really silly. I have a dell computer that I purchased and have allways used Norton antivirus. At the time around downloading Norton 2006 my computer seemed slower. I purchased my pc in 2002 so I thought I just had a lot of junk. I would yearly delete my hardrive and reinstall programs to clear things up but last few years it is slower. Now I have lots of programs but I have removed them from automatically starting on startup. However, I had to update virus protection. So I get this product. After I downloaded it I got an error message saying for some reason it failed to install. Yet I had parts of it on my program list. So to fix it I thought well maybe I need to uninstall 2006. Maybe I should have done that automatically but I didn't realize it. So after that I try to reinstall and it wouldn't let me. In the book it came with if it failed to install it directed me to a website with some link to apply a icon on your computer a remove norton software tool. It appeared to remove it so I reinstall Norton 2007. My computer is not just slow, almost not functioning slow like 5min to ope programs or longer. Then I read up more on norton and many people of all diffent models of pcs and all diffrent years have been acting slow. it takes to much of your computer to use. I used the same icon to totally take out norton off my computer. Hey what do you know my computer is much faster, even faster than it had been. Which makes me wonder about Norton products in general. What happened? Even more disgusting is no warning on the box. B/c of course you wouldn't buy it if there was a problem! Now I've heard some people have extra files from norton after uninstall so I do have many process when I check the task manager feature and feel this product or the 2006 really screwed up this computer. I have downloaded AVG virus protection and long behold it does find a virus that it removes. Well can it fake that? I don't trust anything any more! But my computer is faster. So becareful with this software.

"SYSTEMWORKS 2007 IS "TOP NOTCH" PROTECTION", I have been a Symantec customer for many years. Each year this product gets better and better. Has Norton Firewall, Norton Anti-Virus, automatic updates for viruses and worms, cleans up unneeded files, finds problems with your PC and fixes it for you.
You can even roll back your system to a certain date if a problem occurs and return to the date before the problem started. That is great!

I would not use any other product for this purpose.

"Love product but trouble with installation", I love the Norton Systemworks. I used the 2006 version last year and decided to upgrade to the 2007 version this year. It works great but we cannot get the system go back feature to load. I contacted their online instant help who gave us several things to try but it still will not load. Don't know what else to do since we have worked on it several times - uninstalling and then reinstalling it. It is a great product if you can get it to install completely. It seems a little expensive until you consider all the things it does and then price software that is similiar. Most do not contain all of the features of this and you would have to purchase a few different software programs to get the same protection - that would cost a lot more than this one alone. I feel that for the money, they should be able to help me to get this installed completely or it should be designed better. Overall, I love the Norton Systemworks software.

"warning - will crash your system", If you have an older systemworks loaded, NSW will go to remove the older GO BACK version. If it does, (depending on your system) OK. However, if it wants you to go to Symantek web site and download a GO BACK removal toll, beware. I downloaded it and ran it and it stated it wanted to restart my system. What it did was screw up the partition and crashed the system. GO Back puts your data in a seperate partition. Symantek knows about this and has a "fix" you run before loading NSW, but they didn't let anyone know that it may crash your system. On an older PC, without windows restore tool, it works OK. However, if you have a newer PC with a windows resotre loaded and then have an older NSW GO back loaded, it will crash your PC if you use their GO Back removal tool. Emailed Symantec twice, they stated they would get back in 7 days - never did. Hope you have better luck

"Not compatible with Windows Vista", Used NSW over the years and have been happy with it. However, Windows Vista does not support this product & it doesn't look like it will be compatible anywhere in the near future.
