[georgeg]

Good afternoon can you tell me ( a computer idiot) how to "disable" and then later "enable" norton 2009 as I have an HP driver to install and it suggests doing this to save time/ problems

 

Thanks in advance

Thanks Kev - I see this on the symantec site but when the "home" page opens for Norton 2009 I cant find this left pane with Status and Settings shown - help!!!

Is there just a 'Settings' button ... somewhere?

 

It should take you to a page that looks like this.

 

 

Click on the top Configure[+] button and you should be able to turn it on and off.

2009 isn't that bad interface wise. Doesn't mean it protects you any better though.

It also slows your PC down to a slug's pace. Get rid of it and replace it with free alternatives would be my advice.

Agree, Norton is total ********, got rid of it off all the pc's in the house and now use AVG and other spyware freebies.
