I have tried several virus programs, and I have come to the conclusion that Norton is the best.
Before I had Norton Anti Virus Protection it would always seem like I was getting some virus or another. I use to have IBM protection, but it didn’t seem to keep updated to the entire new virus’s that were being sent into the Internet. I have had Norton on my computer now for over 3 years, and I have not yet received any virus. One time I did have a virus in an email, but the virus protector caught it and put it in Quarantine. If it wasn’t for Norton I would have had big computer problems.
What come with this great virus protector?
Norton is so easy to install, and once it’s installed you have several options available. You can start off by doing a live scan. This will scan your computer for virus’s that might be on your computer. Once the program finds a virus it will put it in what is called quarantine. While it is in quarantine you don’t have to worry about it spreading into your computer, or sending that virus to anyone else. Then once you go to quarantine you can then delete the virus off your computer.
With Norton you can do the live update manually or set it to update when you are sleeping or away from your computer. What this live update does is it connects you to the Internet, and then scans for all the new viruses that are out. Then it remembers those and checks your computer for them, and also will protect you to the entire new virus’s that are coming out.
If a friend gives you a disk, and you want to scan it to make sure the programs on the disk doesn’t have a virus then you can use Norton to do this for you. This is great cause it will detect a virus and if there is one then you wont install the program, and you can then tell your friend. You can also do a check on your “c” drive to see if there was a virus too.
The rescue disk is awesome. You will need to use 3 floppy disks and label them a, b, c. Then you click on rescue disk and it will put everything that is on your computer onto those disks. This is great for when you might have a computer crash. Cause with those 3 disks you can reboot your computer and you will not have lost any information or programs that you had before the crash.
Conclusion of product
So with Norton you can check disks, before install, you can check your computer for any virus that might have been on your computer before you installed the program. You don’t need to worry that Norton didn’t quarantine the virus. You can get live updates of all the new viruses that are going around the Internet, and then protect your computer from them all. And the rescue disk is the best. So I would say you are pretty well covered with the Norton Anti Virus program and now you can feel safe to surf the web, and open emails. So have fun online and know things will be ok once you install this program.
