Hello:
I have been using Norton systemworks for the past 4 years with no
problems. But, now Norton has some way that the product has to be
activated. I was wondering if anyone has had any problem with this 2004 ver.
Is it buggy or can I feel free to keep using it?


Thanks,

Gizmo

Never got it to work on any of my machines. Either Win XP Home or Win XP
Pro, and no help at all.........Peter

I am using NSW2004 on XP PRO and it is just fine. Better
than ever. There is a fantastic password manager that
fills in a LOT of pages for me when doing ordering, etc.
Saves a lot of time. And of course the utilities are
about the same but somewhat improved.

And that's the only thing it has to recommend it?! I use RoboForm
(www.roboform.com) and my system is free from all the other crap NSW insists
on installing - SW is nasty - sooner or later you will rely on it too
heavily and take what it tells you as gospel...well, when that happens,
don't come crying to me - I'll just laugh very loudly and raucously and say
"I told you so!"

NSW shouldn't be allowed anywhere near *ANY* computer - *EVER*. It should
have been withdrawn from sale a *long* time ago!
