You want a product suggestion? How about this: STOP WITH THE FREAKING NAGGING!
I mean, really, Norton (and the Norton Crusaders as well) can go and shove their pompous "we know what's best for you" attitude right up their arrogant posteriors--I will bloody well reboot when I am bloody well ready to reboot, and not any bloody sooner. The only thing that Norton is accomplishing with their stupid nagging is guaranteeing that I'll be buying a competing product, next time.
Oh, in case it isn't clear, I'm referring to the "reboot now? no? well, how about now? perhaps now?" NAG screens. I mean, the "remind me later" options are a complete joke--yeah, I'm going to forget to reboot within the hour, so you'd better remind me. Really, the world is going to end if you don't remind me to reboot tomorrow. Is there really a significant chance that Norton users who select a hypothetical "remind me NEVER" option are going to completely forget to reboot, and then (maybe two, or heavens forbid, even THREE days later) get burnt by exactly that particular virus what might have been stopped if they had remembered to reboot? Let's compare that chance with the risk of users deciding to just crash Norton so that it stops nagging them. (For all the "obey-every-rule" and "never-challenge-authority" types out there who just don't understand how irritating it is to get nagged because they always do everything that they're told--well, I kind of pity you, to be honest.)
So, NORTON, how about dropping the "we know better than you" act? I mean, seriously, disabling the "close dialog box" button on the nag screen is just petty. (Guess what? We can still close the nag screen through the Task Manager.)
And, finally, for those readers shocked that a simple nag screen could bring such a vehement reaction: well, it's not the first time we've complained about the nagging. Nor the second, third, ... In fact, I've lost count. So, where simple requests fail (such as "please allow us to disable the nag screens, or even to select a 'remind me next week/remind me never' option in the reminder menu"), perhaps more elaborate elocutions might elicit more encouraging ententes. (Sorry, I couldn't think of any other words beginning with "e-" that would fit, there.)
I often speak well of Norton, and I don't generally bash those functions which I don't use (as long as they can be disabled); this nag thing is really annoying, though, and if Norton won't change their policy on the user's right to make his or her own decisions, then I'm afraid I will not be renewing my subscription.
(...and there was great rejoicing.) ;p
