    Interesting, CNET gives Norton IS 2009 better marks than Kapersky, Panda, ZoneAlarm, AVG, and says it's leaner and doesn't leave a mess behind on installation. I've been a Symantec bloatware/crashware hater for years, but might give this a look....

    I've used the various Norton security products over the years. I always liked their effectiveness, but hated how much of system resources they hogged. So I'd try something else, not like it, go back to Norton, not like the performance penalty, try something else...

    This seems to have changed with NIS2009. It's a very nice product, does not seem to impose much of a performance penalty. Symantec may have finally gotten it right.

    This is only free if you already own a norton program.

    #6: This is not correct. You can upgrade from any competitors software. Here is the text in the rebate form: "Enclose proof of previous ownership of a stand-alone or pre-loaded version of any Nortonâ„¢ or Symantecâ„¢ software or another company's antivirus, firewall, antispam, antispyware, utility, or back up software
    product.
