Software Review Norton Security 360

I know very well what AMSI is, please don't take me for a fool....

I never said you were a fool. You are putting words into my mouth again.

With proper AMSI integration, downloading a file should not be necessary. More sophisticated script attacks download and run a malicious script in memory only; no file ever touches the file system.

Every single time a lab tests AMSI, Norton fails. And it is common knowledge that Norton does not do well against scriptors. Perhaps you should read the many threads about it here at MT in the Norton sub-forum.

I just told you that I know what AMSI is...
And if you think I'm an idiot with your airs and graces!
You know, I read you on the forum, and I see how you respond to people....
If you don't realize it, there's a problem.

While it may be true that Norton does not support AMSI(read it here somewhere), it does not indicate that Norton is weak against scripts or fileless malware. Norton SONAR does a good job of protecting against scripts and fileless malware.
