Norton Fighter

Already knew about Norton Fighter but the first time seeing the viral videos that they are doing - includes maids with rescue buttons hidden in their cleavage = worth watching.
Norton is actually my choice of anti virus software for my Windows machines. When I started computing, I didn't believe in viruses and thought that they were just made up by anti-virus software companies.
I realized how real viruses were after one virus wiped out my hard disk...

I lol'd so bad after watching this cheesy video. I advise watching it only up to the cleavage part, the rest was kinda... odd.

@_@ manual search and destroy? WOW, you have my repect buddy. Anyway, if it work for you, fine. I got Norton but hate it badly since it kill my Ram and the all the stupid pop up, and warning  it create. For folk who hate Norton try zone arlam, it free and work pretty well(I think). About the video for some reason ultra man alway throw me off, nice maid though ^^

About a quarter of the support calls I get for email are the result of Norton not letting emails being sent out. The only thing I'd use from Norton (Symantec) is it's Ghost software

A genius idea, though the execution is a bit lame.  

Nonetheless, I'm with Leo:  I won't be touching Norton products.  

While the business edition of Norton's products may have a history of excellence, the consumer-oriented products do NOT.  I shudder to think of all the times I've had to remove Norton because it either wasn't doing the job or was causing more problems than it was solving.  

No, Norton's home products are garbage.  McAffee is about as bad.  For businesses and home users, I recommend only Kaspersky or AVG (which now also has the best anti-spyware product, in my experience).  Though I don't recommend them, Avast and Trend-Micro  are on my pass list.

Norton slows down my computer pretty badly, I tried different anti virus since then. Kaspersky is pretty damn secured but somewhat slowing down my browser. Mcaffe and zone alarm are pretty decent, now I'm using Avira, lightweight and high detection rates, although it has lots of false detection.

Henshin Power! Weird strategy that might pay off. Might, though.

AVG user here. Used Norton for a while but give up on it.

I LOL'd at this the first time I saw it a few months ago. hahah.  Never thought they'd make anything like it.  

I personally don't use any antivirus as I find it slowing down my computer most of the time.  I handle viruses personally. heheh! ^^

The video is classic, they even got scratches, grit and hairs on the film. The maid is also classic. I have always used Norton Systemworks and Norton Internet Security and never had problems. Am I the only one??

This video is perfectly targeted to Norton's potential userbase: People who grew up watching tokusatsu series and are now at the age where if they're just starting to use computers, they don't have the knowledge to use the superior free anti-virus/anti-spyware programs out there. Symantec definitely know what they're doing on this one.

I wonder if Norton fighter has a mentor/scientist friend similar to Doctor Norton:

My anti-virus choice is Kaspersky. Never found anything better.

And Norton is a virus in itself.

I hate Norton, the useless pop-ups and constant rebooting after every update bothered the hell out of me. After many switches (McAfee, Kaspersky, Avast, CA and others) I'm now using Trend Micro and it does it's job pretty good IMO. ^^

Not even an Otaku virus can withstand the power of the maid. Virus beware; there's a new super hero in town!
