I want to add my disgust with Symantec who have taken it upon themselves to automatically download NIS V 18.5.0.125 without my consent.
And to add to that I, stupidly, started a chat with someone in India who couldn't read & understand English. They kept repeating what I originally posted. It became so bad that after it got 'elevated' a second time, I just closed the chat window.
But now I have found this forum which seems to be a little better since people who are as mad at Symantec as I am can at least post something.
The only bad thing about this forum, posts like mine will get moved to a new thread that has nothing to do with the title of this post. See the last post in this thread, http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Ver-18-5-0-125-auto-downloaded-and-wants-to-install/m-p/356432
