Winning Protection that won’t slow you down

Norton AntiVirus™ 2009 Gaming Edition is the fastest virus protection you can get. * It stops spyware, worms, bots, and other threats cold—without slowing down your PC. When you’re gaming, your protection should get out of the way. Norton AntiVirus™ 2009 Gaming Edition does exactly that.

Gamer Mode

* No alerts + no notifications = no interruptions
* Optional settings to temporarily suspend updates, behavioral scanning and intrusion prevention
* Enabled automatically when your PC is in full screen mode
* Activate manually with a quick click on the Norton system tray icon

Lightning Fast*

* Rapid Pulse Updates every 5 to 15 minutes
* Installs in less than a minute
* Adds less than 1 second to boot time

Light as a Feather*

* Uses less than 6MB memory even without the Gamer Mode performance boost
* Runs only 2 processes at a time
* Performance graphs display CPU and memory usage and how little Norton is using

Respects your needs

* Smart Scheduler holds resource intensive actions for when you are not using your PC
* Resource usage table shows you the what, when and how long for background actions taken by Norton AntiVirus
* Delivers consistently strong protection - that’s why Norton AntiVirus has won more consecutive Virus Bulletin 100 awards than any other AV software

I am not a big fan of Norton frankly i am quite happy with Nod32. But this new movie by Norton might make some Norton purest happy, although it doesn't change the fact that Norton is gay when it comes to detecting viruses.


Any thoughts.

I hate Norton. Worse than the damn virus.

Try uninstalling it and you'll see what I mean. :mad:

I'll stick to lightweight AV's.

I hate it too. This just might be a PR stunt but lets see if it works.

Norton is shitty. Avast and Comodo FTW

Norton sucks big black dicks. AVG and Avira are loads better

no need for an AV. Never needed it. I just avoid downloading suspicious files

there aren't any hidden processes, or any change in performance. No problems what so ever. I defrag once in a while, and just ran Autosystemcare pro to see if anything would come up, and I just did a few tweaks. Never had any problems.

Check your registry for null entries. You could have a rootkit right now and not even know it.

Under 6mg of memory is very good for an AV, especially Norton.

I've managed to get AVG down to about 3 megs total

Regardless of the "cool" name they give it, it's still Norton, it still doesn't work, and it's still a bitch to deal with in almost every respect.

I'm set with Eset, and if you have some moral objection to stealing it, either pay, or use Avira.
