Norton Internet Security 2005 AntiSpyware
Symantec today released their Anti-Spyware application - Norton Internet Security 2005 AntiSpyware Edition. I downloaded it and was in the middle of the install when the following dialogue box appeared:
>Well, thanks but no - what makes them think I
want their damn anti-virus? Perhaps if I had no
protection this would be a treat but to have them suggest I uninstall my
present Anti-virus seems a tad arrogant to me. Sorry Symantec, you're
tactic is not appreciated and therefore I will not
be installing your application until it is a stand-alone anti-spyware
client.
