Norton AV is a product of Symantec, the largest multi-national security software company in the world. BTW, this is not the response of a 14 year old. I am 25, a senior technician at a small IT consulting firm. So, if you want to engage, go ahead. I refuse flame wars. Oh, and BTW again, you already have engaged in a discussion with a 14 year old: "you show me 5 bad reports of panda from 5 different sources and i will show you 10 bad reports on norton" - making demands... how is that not engaging? Explain.
Furthermore, you're making a circular argument, demanding that this guy back up his claims, when you have not done him the courtesy to back up your own. I'm not judging Panda. It's simple: capitalism. Supply and demand - you see, when a company is as large as Symantec, they inherently have the resources to provide a better product. It's the implementation of those resources that make the difference. Case in point: M$. Microsoft routinely releases poor quality products. Apple, some would argue, does not. See... implementation. Symantec, IMO, has consistently held the market share on AV for a reason: it's the best product on the market.
I deal with virus and spyware infections every day. I routinely uninstall Panda and AVG from clients' PCs and sell them a copy of Norton. Why? Because I don't want them coming back and complaining, and guess what? They don't. They don't get infected.
You want reports on Norton? You need to be more specific. Do you want white papers? Studies? Statistical evidence? Reviews? Specify, dude. And... if I have time, I will reply... so, yeah, you don't have to deal with "a 14 year old." Bye for now.
don't tell me i haven't backed up my claims....try reading the thread before you speak.
