Battle ESET NOD32 8 vs. FREE Norton Security w/ Backup 10-USER 1 yr license

[ifacedown]

Hello!

I just received a genuine email from Symantec offering 10-user license keys for Norton Security with Backup (2015) valid for 1 year for being a beta tester... should I grab it?

I am currently using ESET Nod32 8 and I can use ESET 8 for as long as I want... Hmmm... I know both products are good and light, but ESET is a bit lighter.

I don't worry about Norton's average detections for I am a careful PC user. Maybe Norton's Backup of 25 GB is a big PLUS.

Or maybe I could use Norton for a year then return to ESET

Use ESET till December then Norton for a year. I am going to do that as i got keys also.

 

[conTROLLeur]

I think Norton is better than ESET

Yeah, keys valid if activated before on/before Dec 15. Then you believe it offers adequate protection?

I think Norton is better than ESET

How could you say that? Pls explain How long have you been using Norton? Are you using latest Norton?

Norton has improved itself , now it's a big threatkiller, you have to give it a chance.

Really? Are you using the new 2015 products? How can you say it has improved? What if I'm offline, can it protect me?

I tried it recently and I can say it's a very good product ,by the past it was not but it becomed a really good suite. Just take a look at the reviews you'll see,even if you're offline you're protected.

Yes i have used Norton since 2010 and not even one infection. I am happy with the product.

Oh! I could not use Norton on Windows 10 Tech Preview! Bad!

Norton cannot block Poweliks malware... , and cannot remove it now.
It is a headache...

Is it a destructive malware?

Is it a destructive malware?

It generates so many dllhost.exe in memory, and make it impossible to use a computer due to memory and cpu lack...

It's lie... See the forum...There are three threads about the removal of poweliks malware infection.
Nobody can solve it.

Can you provide the link for beta test page

 

[frogboy]

Can you provide the link for beta test page

No not any more as it is not in Beta any more. Sorry.

 

[ifacedown]

No not any more as it is not in Beta any more. Sorry.

Oh man! Can't use it on my MAIN system - Windows 10 Tech Preview. Windows 10 is much more productive for me, I won't return now for Windows 8.1
