Norton Internet Security 2005

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Not going to go in deep details, but I just removed this behemoth from my
system. Before I removed it I have around 60 processes running, after
uninstalling I now have around 49.

Took a crow bar and dynamite to get rid of. The uninstall failed so I
downloaded the Norton Removal Tool from their website. After running it 3
times, I still had over 40 registry entries that I had to manually remove.
And I am sure there are more that are deeply embedded.

My system runs and loads so much faster.

I had been blaming I.E. for lots of browsing issues (slow page loads, 404
errors, etc) now none of that. Truly like a new PC.

Been using Norton products for over 15 years, but no more. Been scanning
weekly for virus for years and never had one. I am behind a router, so a
firewall is not needed. I know what sites not to visit to avoid malware.
(Though I do run Windows Defender)
