Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Enjoy a fine-tuned computer with Norton SystemWorks 2006. This multi-purpose solution prevents many common problems, keeping your computer healthy and running smoothly. And if trouble does occur, it's there to help you recover.

A lot can go wrong with computers--systems slow down, data gets accidentally deleted, viruses attack--and Norton SystemWorks can stop many of these problems before they occur. To keep your system running smoothly, it rearranges files for fast access, finds and repairs broken Windows registries, and removes Internet clutter. Its antivirus protection--the most trusted on the planet*--safeguards your computer against damaging viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and dangerous spyware. And to keep your data and settings intact, it constantly tracks changes to your system and files. That means you won't have to worry about losing your work, even if you forget to save changes to a document. No matter how many precautions you take, problems can still occur. And with Norton SystemWorks, you don't have to turn to techie friends or family when this happens. Whether you need to remove a virus, repair a Windows glitch, or rescue damaged files, Norton SystemWorks can help you solve your problem and get you up, running, and enjoying your computer in no time.

*Top-selling antivirus software product from December 2000 through May 2005 based on the NPD Group's retail Top Selling Business Software list.

Connect to the Internet on your own terms. With Norton Personal Firewall 2006, you control what comes in and what goes out. A powerful firewall, it's your primary line of defense against hackers and other intruders.

Forming a perimeter around your computer, it posts sentries at all points of entry. These sentries automatically check the ID of anyone or anything trying to enter your computer. Based on your preferences, they allow entry, deny entry, or ask you first. And if something even looks suspicious, they automatically lock it out. Norton Personal Firewall also gives you the power to control outgoing traffic. Using Norton Protection Center a one-look panel for controlling all your security tools you decide which of your programs can connect to the Internet. Norton Personal Firewall is also a powerful cloaking device. It hides you from hackers and thieves, to safeguard your identity and data while you're online. Finally, it helps you control private information, warning you before personal data can leave your computer.

You may be able to patch together this kind of protection with a mix of other products. But Norton Personal Firewall combines automatic intrusion protection and cloaking with full control over what enters and leaves your computer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Caused my dell computer to crash - awful software, 7 Feb 2006
By Abigail Penny (London, UK United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I installed this software on my dell computer. It caused it to crash! Do not buy it - I have since discovered that there are compatibility problems with dell and norton. If only I had known before I bought it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not all is well, 2 May 2006
I have been a user of the Symantec products for many years and have found them to be better than similar products on the market. My system has remained secure and has performed very well during this time with the utilities being easy to use. However there is an aspect of the 2006 products that is disturbing and has proven to be very difficult to overcome. The products now incorporate Norton Protection Center (NPC) which is design to "validate" your system on boot-up. In other words it checks to see that all your programs that should be running are and that your virus definitions are up-to-date etc etc. This is fine until it finds a problem. Currently, as I write this review, NPC has been running for 4 hours because it has found an issue which it cannot resolve. This is not the first time it has happened, in fact it happens all too regularly. You cannot stop NPC by conventional means. When it is running SystemWorks and Firewall cannot be accessed nor can Liveupdate run. Although the anti-virus and Firewall aspects are in place you cannot modify them, update them or indeed can Liveupdate. NPC does not tell you what it is doing nor will it tell you it has a problem - it just runs and runs. Symantec Support point you at their web site where you can search in a vain attempt to find a solution. The solution I have is to confire msconfig to disable NPC and manually trigger the SystemWorks Utilities when you remeber to do so. I am not impressed by NPC - it brings you more problems than what it solves and detracts from what otherwise is a good product.

1.0 out of 5 stars Norton System Works Malware, 19 Feb 2006
By A Customer
I found Norton's System Works to be full of bugs and problems. If you accidentally install goback it will not uninstall correctly and every attempt to install without that option via custom install it will always install it's self.

It is badly written with poor GUI especially with the option list. Even worse when trying to uninstall it fails with Norton’s protected files still in place and no real way of removing it nor correcting the installation changes. As for help what a joke !.

My advice is to use the money back option and send it back for refund or even better not to buy it in the first place.
