3.0 out of 5 stars Software is good but the upgrade leaves a lot to be desired, 11 July 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Norton Internet Security & Antispyware 2005 Upgrade Pack (CD-ROM)
I ordered NIS 2005 with Anti-Spyware Upgrade to replace my 2004 version. There was NOTHING to indicate that installing the software will overwrite my current configuration.

I use Parental Controls on multiple XP accounts, allowed sites on my childrens' accounts, restrict personal information, etc. All of this was wiped when upgrading. I now find myself the task of reconfiguring everything.

I also use Live Update once or twice a week. It totally wiped out updates from around April to now. Fortunately I'm on a speedy broadband so getting them wasn't too bad but it would have been a pain on dial-up.

Finally, I just discovered this morning that the Norton Add-On in Outlook COMS keeps Outlook running in background despite closing it down. How many hours I'll spend looking for a work-around, goodness knows.

I'm a better than average computer user. How a novice would cope, I dont' know. Only saving grace is how good the software is once you get it up and running, properly.

1.0 out of 5 stars Stick with the basic package, 25 Jun 2005
By Ian C (Staffordshire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Norton Internet Security & Antispyware 2005 Upgrade Pack (CD-ROM)
Perhaps I have been lucky, I have never had a problem with Norton before, but all that changed with this upgrade.

I upgraded from NIS 2003 and found that I could no longer access Word and Excel documents and could not do a whole system scan. All the suggestions on the support site failed to resolve the problem as did a full removal of the program and re-install from scratch.

Eventually I swapped it for the basic NIS without the added Spyware and all worked fine. My advice is keep it simple - stick with basic package.

3.0 out of 5 stars NIS installation problems, 21 July 2005
By Ray Wilkes (Shipley, UK United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Norton Internet Security & Antispyware 2005 Upgrade Pack (CD-ROM)
I have not tried NIS 2005 antispyware edition yet but I have found that you must uninstal earlier editions of NIS or NAV (and this is very difficult) before upgrading or you get a terrible outcome. But with a clean instal the product is excellent.
Pity they are putting off lots of custmers by not making the upgrade path easy as it should be. Meanwhile Microsoft Antispyware seems to be perfect and free.
