Norton AntiVirus 2005 Screenshots


Recommended Posts

The corporate edition looks good. I might switch to that. It's true that nothing ever changes. It seems to happen to a lot of well established software, which long ago fulfilled their remitt and now just add stupid measures like product activation.

Maybe I should just use L***x. At least there they make changes for the better :cool:

I have used NAV 2001, 2002, 2003 and now 2004. Probably I'll go to 2005 when my virus definitions subscription will be about to expire. I like it because it runs well, it doesn't slows down too much my computer as others say and I have never had a single error or problem with any of those versions. Also, I like the fact that by purchasing the pro edition, which is only $10 more than the normal edition for the upgrade, I get licenses for two computers, so, I can install it on my one and my wife's one.

I really don't have anything wrong to say about NAV and would recommend it to anyone who asks me if it is a good product.

About the cleaning problems, I always try to be careful on downloads, e-mail attachments and other harmful things, so, I usually don't have to disinfect anything. What I do have to disinfect, like some e-mail messages, it cleans up nicelly and I don't have to worry.

Just my thoughts.

I am using corp 9 right now but that is because my computer is getting old now and every extra resource saved helps.

I was wondering if antivirus companies were going to start blocking spyware/adware. Maybe Symantec wil by Lavasoft or something and merge technoligies and offer the added protection in one program along with adware/spyware updates amongst the virus updates.

Any thoughts?

What's wrong with Norton AV 2004? I have been using it since it came out and so far so good, very good product, no errors, no slow down of my PC and it runs like a charm, The virus definitions are one of the most updated defs out there in AV products.

I also love the way Norton integrates with windows, It runs as it was truely just another Windows component, I love it.

If you have problems with Norton is it maybe because you have a pirated copy?

LOL, uses less resources than the others?

Trend uses way less resources, NOD32 is probably the best.

As long as your behind a good router and have a good antivirus on your system and running firfox with adblock installed and very careful about every file you open you should very good

I'm currently using NAV 2004 without any problems, and performance is great - everything loads very quick on startup & in general.

The people who say it's bloated and slow, you have to turn off the "Load Auto-Protect during system boot" option - as well as the "Scan within compressed files".

I have no use for the above, which is why NAV 2004 works great for me.

I wonder what new features NAV 2005 will have, they currently everything covered in NAV 2004.

Radish?

Umm no, didn't you read the part where it says "during system boot"?

Auto-Protect starts no matter what in Windows itself.

Some people :rolleyes:

    • I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.
    • I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.
    • The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.
    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
