Reviews of the Norton AntiVirus 2005
-
CNET Review
The Good: New inbound port blocking to prevent worm intrusions; faster preinstallation scans; improved interface.
The Bad: Doesn't include a full-fledged firewall; real-time scanner doesn't look for spyware.
The Bottom Line: Norton AntiVirus 2005 is a tenacious virus fighter that, given its premium price, should also--but doesn't--include a firewall. It's a good bet for Norton users who want to upgrade, though.
