How did you remove N.I.S. 2008?

 

In what order did you install N.I.S. 2009 and Norton SystemWorks 2008?  What Norton SystemWorks was it: Basic Edition?

I knew I forgot something It is NWS Basic Edition.

 

NIS install first and it removed itself.

 

NWS wanted me to disable Norton System Doctor before it would install. I did, restarted and NSW installed.

 

Once I restarted again, NIS loaded and NSW NPC alerted me that I had no virus protection or spyware protection, it had also turned on Windows Firewall, User Account, and Windows Defender. I used LiveUpdate but it did not resolve the problem as I had hoped it would.

I have heard that N.SW. does not recognise the N.I.S. 2009 Anti-Virus.  This is either a bug with N.I.S. 2009/N.SW., or, it will be Resolved when N.SW. 2009 comes out.

I had NIS 2008 and NSW 2008 installed and upgraded NIS last week to NIS 2009. I have the problem reported by others, namely NSW Protection Center doesn't recognize NIS 2009 and reports that there is no protection. Other than that, NSW still seems to work OK.

 

BTW, NIS 2009 is great! It seems much faster and I couldn't believe how fast it installed. I think it installed faster than it takes to copy the install files from one directory to another. I hadn't realized that the remaining days on my 2008 subscription were valid for the new 2009 version; that was a nice surprise.

 

Now, if only NSW 2009 works as fast!
