I have just configured and loaded a new Core Duo machine. In 2005, on my
previous machine) I installed Norton Systemworks, avoiding the installation
of GoBack. Life was beautiful. But when I upgraded to NSW 2006 the trouble
started. I know what the problem was-- help from this NG pointed at NSW's
self-protection feature as the culprit. The recent excellent reply to a
similar problem by Bert Kinney (11/14) confirmed this.
However I did like certain features of NSW besides Anti-Virus. The 1 button
checkup was nice, as is their defrag utility. However the 2006 screwing up
my system restore files, causing the need for a complete system re-install
is giving me thought for pause. It seems to me I have 2 alternatives:
1) install 2005 (which did not trash my SR files) and get all the NAV
updates
2) Ask this forum its preference of another registry cleaner and anti-virus
and ditch Norton altogether.
If I were to choose option 1, how would I back up SR files, just in case!
(i.e. what are they called, etc.)
I would appreciate your input! Thank you
