I have always held Norton products in high regard. However, I have just installed Norton PC Checkup, whicn came bundled with software in my thumbdrive. I ran it, only to be given incorrect information, and infomed that I should purchase Norton products to solve the problems.
I was informed that I have no antivirus running (I have PC Tools Spyware Doctor with Antivirus runniing), that only Windows firewall was running (I am running Comodo firewall), that I have no protection installed (PC Tools Spyware Doctor and Performance Toolkit ). Furthermore, it suggests that my performance is poor (even though I use PC Tools Performance Toolkit and Iolo System Mechanic to enhance performance) , specifically that my speed rating is poor, even though my machine flies in tests. Finally, it warns that I have 3 viruses/spyware infections, although all 3 listed are harmless cookies.
This is detestable behavior on the part of a otherwise respectable software vendor. I am directed to purchase Norton products to correct misidentified (fraudulently identified) problems. Really, how could you? Your product may be superior to those I use, but only marginally, as they are highly rated on the internet. Why would I want to pay to try out Norton software under these fraudulelnt conditiions?
