Always buy Norton as it has yet to let me down and keeps my computers secure.
Great that you can install on more than one machine.
Got discount due to slight bash on box.
A bargain.

Norton AntiVirus 2010 is a revelation, addressing the many problems of earlier bloatware norton releases. Having had many problems with Norton products in the past, mainly the hit on system resources, but also the less than comprehensive protection, having had some machines badly infected while supposedly full protected by norton products, AntiVirus 2010 so far has exceeded my expectations, although it remains to be seen how good the protection will be in the long term.
AntiVirus 2010 is a very well designed piece of software, its hard to find software which will be up and running as quickly, although best installed on a clean machine, removing existing anti-virus products. The install requires almost no input from the user, and indeed if your looking for an idiot-proof internet security this would seem to fit the bill, needing almost no intervention.
AntiVirus 2010 does an impressive job of delivering a lot of powerful features but the demands on the computer are remarkably light, to prove the point there is even a real time display of cpu usage and what percentage of that is norton. Indeed on vista it runs much faster than any other anti-virus impressively so.
The silent mode is a superb feature, and very flexible. When running in silent mode AntiVirus 2010 will run in the background as efficiently as possible, it wont start scans or any other tasks and it wont display any notifications or pop-ups, this is run automatically while watching movies or games full screen, or can be turned on for a predetermined period of time, or configured to run whenever a certain program starts, and end to annoying background virus scans at inopportune moments when working or watching. Great feature.
Insight protection, which is supposed to be a big part in improving the speed of threat detection, allows for intelligent file recognition, but in terms of fine tuning tool it does not give the depth of information as some other similar tools, allowing for close inspection of suspicious files and processes. The insight settings are somewhat confusingly accessible as application ratings on the main console, rather than the more logical insight protection details.
The main console is fairly straightforward but the ignore and monitor options available for each setting are extremely obscure in terms of what they are actually doing, and seem best ignored.
Its worth noting that Antivirus 2010 does not include a firewall, which is an essential part of internet security, but there is a smart firewall as part of the Norton Internet Security 2010, which also includes all the features of Antivirus 2010.
AntiVirus 2010 is a very comprehensive all-in one product which delivers a great range of features at impressive speed, successfully addressing one of nortons big downfalls of previous versions, it remains to be seen how well it will actually protect a machine against potential threats.

Yes, it works. However, the problem with Norton is that when your year is up, it switches itself OFF until you pay again. The old Norton used to carry on protecting your system, but disabled the ability to update your virus definitions. I'll not be using this again -- gonna get the free Microsoft Security Essentials.
