Product Review: Norton Internet Security 2009

Thursday November 20, 2008
Symantec has long held a position as one of the major players in antivirus and PC security products. One complaint users have about computer security software, but particularly with Symantec, has been the size of the install and the way it bogs the system down. Often the trade-off of performance is not considered worth it to protect the computer and users simply disable or remove the protection.

Symantec has taken those issues to heart in creating Norton Internet Security 2009- it is smaller, and faster, and yet still offers all of the protection of its predecessors and then some. NIS 2009 includes a comprehensive suite of protection against a wide variety of computer threats, but is it worth the investment? Take a look at my review of Norton Internet Security 2009 to learn more about the product and my opinion of it.
