Norton continually is trying to frighten me into buying something I don't want and now keeps telling me i need to update software that does not need updating. Is there another Anti virus program that is not a virus?
I had real troubles with disabling the miner, in the end I think it was just constantly turning it off until it seemed to stick. For some reason the laptop kept crashing when trying to turn the miner off, but eventually worked. It seems like a very useless feature, especially for lower end pc's - I could earn an amazing 17c a month, but the gpu would be running 100% constantly and I doubt that would cover the cost of electricity alone!
I'm with you. I am getting REALLY sick of the Norton interface. 1. I don't even know what product I have anymore (I THINK its Norton 360). I get hit with ads to "upgrade" to Norton 360. Constantly getting popups to buy this or add that. When I open my Norton product. I see "My Norton." The taskbar says "norton 360". At the top of the window it says "Norton Crypto" and it says "Mining" in green and the little icon is rotating. If I click on that, another window opens that says "Norton Crypto" and its green and it says "Status: Mining Ethereum" It implies that it is mining. There is a Pause button. I hit Pause and one of the options is "Turn off Miner". So I turn it off. close the window. and "My Norton" screen says "Norton Crypto" "mining (in green) at the top of the screen. Am I mining???? Jeez. The user interface on Norton has been bad for a while but its gotten AWFUL. BTW, I don't want my machine mining...EVER!!! How do I kill it??
I have the same problem - how do I turn off the constant stream of 'recommendations' to upgrade to other programs, which feel like they should all be in the one already. This nickel and dime way of pushing upgrades constantly is really starting to wear thin
