On a completely separate topic: what's with the Norton recovery screen, you know, the big, angry red one, floating ON TOP of everything else--even when I am actively typing in Firefox? Are they that worried that I'll miss the BIG ANGRY RED WINDOW, if they allow it to shift behind the active window when I continue typing? Bad on you, Norton, I'm not blind. (And if I were, guess what... it still wouldn't work!) I know you crashed, and *I* instigated the recovery, so all the demands for attention really accomplish only one thing: just like a spoilt little child, "look at me, look at me!", you're going to get ignored. Stay in your room for a while. I'll disconnect the internet for a bit, and my computer will be happier without you hogging resources, anyway. When I need you again, *if* you behave, I might even reward you with a restart.
(Seriously, though: I understand the big, angry red window. What makes no sense at all is this obsession Norton has with interrupting all other activity until the user responds in some prescribed way to the warning. You cover the centre of the screen with your big red warning; fine. I click on the window behind your warning, to bring it back to the front, and YOU £$%"ING WELL COOPERATE. You do NOT just ignore the user. Are the programmers 5 years old, or something? If this is about that legal concern, then just include it in the EULA: "If Norton gives me a big red warning, and I ignore it, then any loss or damage that results is my own stupid fault." Making the warning impossible to ignore is just going to result in users buying less obnoxious software--which works just as well. Remember the boy who cried "wolf"? When you throw up these irritating warning screens for every little excuse, it just means that users won't believe you when there actually *is* a danger.)
