1.0 out of 5 stars 3-User license is non-renewable as a 3-user license, October 18, 2005
This review is from: Norton AntiVirus 2005 Home Protection Pack - 3 Users (CD-ROM)
If you wish to purchase this product be aware that the each of the three licenses must be renewed seperately - even though at the time of renewal, it will still call the renewal "Norton AntiVirus 2005 3-Pack Subscriptions". I only found this out after I renewed the subscription. I believed that the "3-pack" meant 3 licenses, and that was what I was subscribing to. WRONG! My experience with customer support to gain a refund or credit has been miserable. I will not be renewing any more of my subscriptions with Norton, and after this event I will not recommend them to ANYONE! Be warned.

1.0 out of 5 stars Has anyone tried renewing their 3 User subscription yet?, September 26, 2005
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Norton AntiVirus 2005 Home Protection Pack - 3 Users (CD-ROM)
They are now telling me that I have to pay $25 per machine to renew the subscription! This is more than the cost of buying the product brand new through their web-site. So much for customer service/retention.

Looks like I will be shoveling more driveways this fall/winter to pay for this baloney. Or wait, maybe I will switch to an open source solution. Hmmm...

5.0 out of 5 stars Why I Stick With Norton..., May 21, 2005
By 
This review is from: Norton AntiVirus 2005 Home Protection Pack - 3 Users (CD-ROM)
I've recently been reading a ton of complaints around the web about the Symantec Norton Antivirus and Internet Security Suite of software. The following little review has been written in response to those complaints:

One of the biggest complaints that I read about Norton Antivirus and Norton Internet Security is the cost. For me, however, the annual upgrade on Norton Products always ends up free--at least it has since the turn of the millenium. Inevitably if you wait long enough their rebates come out that make the upgrade to the new product absolutely cost free. This holds true even with their full suite which may retail at $70, but I've managed to get 5 copies for various computers I manage at a final cost to me of $0. Actually, with Amazon.com because I get a discount because of the A9 search engine, I think I've managed to earn a couple of bucks by installing Norton Internet Security. Next year, I'll use the rebates to do the same.

With Internet Security, the concerns of many people who are against Norton and Symantec (especially firewall) with the exception of the resource hog issue (Symantec really needs to address this issue) are handled.

Symantec needs to fix their technical service side of things by offering free help of at least some sort. They need to tone down the issues of resource hogging. But as long as they offer me free upgrades every year and consistently maintain virus-free computers (6 years virus free on all on the computers I've managed: usually 5-7 at one time) I'll stick with Symantec. Nevertheless, despite these pitfalls, as long as I can keep upgrading for free and my systems remain virus-free, Norton is my source for internet security.
