So I've installed yesterday NIS 2012 Beta on my system.....and I can't seem to find any type of Chrome support for the latest dev. build....
I'm using Google Chrome 12.0.742.30 (latest build)

Google Chrome browser – best support ever
If Chrome is your favorite browser, you are in for a treat. 2012 comes full circle on the Chrome browser by supporting Identity Safe and Safe Web features. This means you will get the password and form-filling capability from Identity Safe, industry-leading phishing protection and SafeWeb site safety ratings for Web sites and search results. You can choose to view the toolbar in full, or close it and continue to get a Norton icon on the top right indicating the safety of the page.

original


With this most recent addition Norton continues to protect our users on one more platform when they surf online.

So where is it ? Did I miss any setting?Dose Symantec not support (yet) the beta/dev builds?

You could browse the Norton Public Beta Forums to see if there are similar issues.

There are known issues with build.108 and Google Chrome, here.

Other than that, I have no idea. :p

Probably it does in Google Chrome on the link in known issues, you can try the stable version of GC (version 11) .

I doubt that they will ever support a version from an early access release channel (like dev.)

Yep , I do feel like this is happening because I'm using the dev. build..I'm pretty sure that Norton dose support the stable version.



And here it is NIS and Chrome stable. :D

If I could get my hands on the Norton Toolbar .xpi file I could make some tweaks (force the bugger) to work with the dev builds. I've done it before for other chrome extensions and I do it on Firefox Nightly 6.0.

I do think that Symantec will have a problem keeping up with "releasing" plan ...... I mean Google is one of those companies who is alaways updating their product...If they had a problem with FF going from 4 to 4.0.1 .....
On the other hand Google developing stages are better organized than in Firefox case...So who knows:D

Most likely after they will release the final version of NIS 2012.

I think NIS was focused first in added the plugin in the stable browser.
