I happen to use and install and love Symantec Corporate Edition
products, but I can't understand why any knowledgeable person would
install a suite like NIS without checking out reports about it.
I would never install NIS and would also remove it from every computer I
could find, being permitted. I would run NAV 2005 or Corporate Edition 9
on any computer.
Like your experience, I've installed enough NAV 2004 and 2005 and Corp
Edition to know what it does, how it works, and that I have not found
anything better. I've taken known infected machines, run all the normal
AV scanners on them in safe mode, then come back and installed NAV +
Updates (from CD) and found more. I have never had a PC with NAV/CE
compromised and we check on a regular basis against AVG and others on
select machines.
I do, completely, agree that NIS is a lousy product and full of bloat.
