Totally blows!!!!!

I read that it will ask you to remove various programs you might also have running like Zonealarm,Pest Patrol,SpySweeper,etc...

These are the customer reviews on CNet.com:

Basically they want exclusivity on your machine! Who do they think they are??

They probably have a deal with M$ or something (Wouldnt @ all surprise me!!)

I can understand ZA, but why would you remove anti-spyware? AV programs won't deal with that, and the anti-spyware programs can;t pick up everything, which is why most people use several.

I've never used Norton (too expensive) but I've seen many comments on their demands for exclusivity.

Yes and its totally uncalled for really.....

I read several things (I did a google search) on problems between Symantec and Microsoft......

All i can say is: Symantec really ruined this product!!

The last good version i hear is 2002 (Which will run on XP in compatibility mode)
