cant wait too see what it looks like and what norton 2013 will have
normly buy now some in been leak on too the internet like norton v6 photos where
 
Well actually at the moment no official beta nor UI that came from Symantec Team.

Having simple Google Search stumbled on this page.

Here is the suggestion page from Norton Community.
 
Think 2012's is better than that design, hope they will make a better one than the current and not listen to that guy.
 
Just hope they try something new next time around. Tired of the dark and dull GUI.
 
We always encounter some "home made" GUI version of Norton but overall let's see how goes from their team in designing it.

Those users who made their UI were just a prediction so no guarantee it would be same on a official result.

Case in point:

I'd like them to change it, Norton interface is kind of boring in my opinion.
My favourite is Bitdefender but it's a heavy product.

Shudder indeed. That is terrible and puts Metro to shame.

I whipped up this proper Metro inspired bar like design in 30 minutes with Photoshop.

With the current Norton UI it uses heavy dark gradients, I tried it with no gradients and only simple one selection colors.

Reality is, No matter which UI style, colors etc the design team choices, Not everyone is going to like it. There is endless possibilities with designs. Either accept it or move on. Thanks. ;)

Nice design. I would definitely buy Norton if it had that design, and better detection, and less lag.

Same, the darkness GUI is getting old and fast.

Cheers, How was Norton laggy for you?
 
Nice design there MrXidus.

One other thing that bugs me is the Activity Map on the main GUI. It serves no real purpose other than to look good. Something more useful could be put in it's place.
 
Probably list of detected threats found by Norton since installed on the system through their components.

Likely to be more informative IMO.

Exactly, something like that would be of more use.

That was a few years back, but it registered my system unusable. I've tried it in a VM, and it still takes up about 30MB of memory, while other AV's (namely ESET and Vipre), use about 5MB.

Norton is a funny program when it comes to resources. It will analyse the files it needs to scan so it can be more efficient. This process can take some time for performance to level out and you should notice memory usage and CPU drop as this happens.
 
i had norton when i brought this laptop for new....i was terribly slowed down by the download insight.:@

i downloaded something one day and it took forever to analyze...then told me to remove the program i removed it and rebooted and norton hogged the CPU to 99% :@ and wouldnt come down....tried some solutions like reinstalling but none worked then i had to throw away norton and that's when i discovered avast....now i find avast much much much better....it has some excellent protection! that no other product has :D

I guess symantec likes to make more of a bloated product :P but for me i have had a bad history with norton :)
