Internet security renewal

January 31, 2008

The big problem I'm having with Norton at the moment is staying with it,

which all things considered I'm happy to do. I'm told I have to renew my

free subscription, but whenever I try I'm told, "This file is too large to

open using AOL. Please open this file using another application." What

should my next step be?

Get something other than norton. :)

You know what it is really funny? I had an invite several weeks ago to

attend a joint Symantec/Intel webinar for OEMs/resellers. That's not so

funny until you consider the topic du jour, "FYI: The new version of

Norton AV now uses less RAM and CPU cycles." LOL, trying to shore up

the customer base that's been running for the hills for how many years.

And yea, even if this low resource usage is really true, you're about a

decade too late Symantec!

Re: Internet security renewal

Considering that Norton is published by Symantec, I would

contact them and ask them.

Do you really think this is related to Win XP x64 or Vista x64?
