Symantec Norton Confidential (10745136)

Entered CNET Catalog: 01/03/2007

SKU: 10745136

Manufacturer: Symantec Corporation

Manufacturer description

Norton Confidential is designed to safeguard your personal information from online theft and fraud, protecting you when you're most vulnerable - while banking or shopping online, or at any Web site, and about to submit passwords, account numbers, or other confidential information. Norton Confidential is one of the first solutions to protect you from both fraudulent phishing Web pages and crimeware while you are logging in, making a purchase, or otherwise providing your personal information to a Web site. Norton Confidential looks for known threats and suspicious behavior, inspecting Web pages, and dangerous or identity-stealing programs on your PC before any interaction with them. If a threat is detected, Norton Confidential blocks your confidential information from the attack - such as getting phished by fraudulent Web sites, or having your keystrokes secretly recorded by identity thieves. Norton Confidential encrypts your passwords and prevents you from unintentionally disclosing them to unauthorized sites.

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Pros: Nothing good to say about it. Really.

Cons: Doesn't work, impossible to install, unstable, useless.

Review: This is THE WORST software I have ever bought. It took over 10 hours to install, I spent 2 hours in live chat with Symantec "support", and IT DOESN'T WORK! More than half the time, it DOES NOT fill in passwords like it is supposed to. Who know why? Visiting websites is incredible slow with this junk running. Now, I am getting an "number of activations exceeded" and am expected to call Symantec "support" to reactivate I product I paid for! I have had it with this software. I've never flamed a product before, but this one deserves it. DO NOT BUY IT! REPEAT, DO NOT BUY IT.
