Yep. Me, too.
I don't use Norton for firewall or for AV. I use Norton
because in my 20 + years, I have YET to encounter a better
hard drive manager. If it's properly installed, for all the
comments I've seen, you can't beat Norton for finding and
fixing a HOST of hard drive issues.
And I didn't pay for mine. I found a copy of Norton
SystemWorks 2003.
And that's what I continue to use.
I've heard complaints about 2004 AND 2005.
My son was complaining about all the issues that he's heard
relating to 2004 and 2005.
I said, "That's why I gave you 200_3_."
It's one of the very few suggestions I've made that he's
used and liked. (he's a budding computer engineer).
