Norton Internet Security 2005 - Single User [LB] review:2 stars ( Online Activation?????) - Let me start by saying that I have pretty much always used Norton software for computer safety and have not been disappointed, and that is the only reason that It gets 2 stars (more like 1 1/2) since I am sure that it works just as well as their other products. Also, I am a college student and can seldom to afford to purchase either new versions or subscription fees that Norton seems to enjoy doing these days. I figured that I would just bite the bullet this year since it has been at least 3 years since I have upgraded any of the older packages that I own.

With that all being said allow me to explain why I gave it the rating that I have. I originally purchased this at another store in town and returned it immediately once I saw that there was a manditory online activation. That just insults my intelligence and loyalty to the company and refuse to support companies that have that policy. The best way to keep companies from telling you what you can do with something that you have purchased from them is to just not purchase them at all! If any of you have a similar gripe that I do not recommend purchasing this product. There are other software packages that are either free or do not have similar policies as Symmatic that can be found. I feel that I am going to do as soon as I am done writing this review!!
