[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1092877, member: 99014"] It looks like Norton wants to be “more premium”, or in other words, have advantage over Avast on Mac, so they give you both the Web Shield (which was many years ago developed by a company called Exploit Preventions Labs, acquired by AVG and rebranded as LinkScanner), and SafeWeb. I would expect the Windows version to be the same. Web Shield includes DNS and whois reputation analysis, real time script and page heuristics, as well as botnet control and anti-exploit functionalities, apart from blocking malicious connections from all apps. It is perfectly capable of replacing the Symantec IPS. [/QUOTE]
