[QUOTE="Anthony Qian, post: 956946, member: 91446"] I have not been a big fan of Norton since they released Norton Crypto... Norton is still buggy. The setting interface sometimes won't open and this issue is a long-standing one. Many users, including me, have reported this issue to Norton but they just fail to fix it.

Also, I am concerned about Norton's R&D capability in terms of anti-virus as I read the following from NortonLifeLock's [URL='https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/849399/000084939920000004/nlokfy2010-k.htm']SEC filing[/URL]: [/QUOTE]
