Their last product that was any good was Speed Disk and Disk Dr. from Norton Utilities 2000 for Windows 9x and Me. NU2K's Speed Disk for 2000 and XP was just a frontend for the Diskkeeper (very) Lite included with those Windows versions. I didn't see any real difference from just using what came with Windows. Symantec and McCaffee, same thing. Horribly bloated software that puts its hooks into everything and has the "dirtiest" uninstall I've ever seen. One must track down left behind folders to delete then use CCleaner to scrub its remnants out of the Registry. I use a custom install of Avast 7 with just its antivirus installed, and Microsoft Security Essentials. Amazing that such a program could come from the king of bloat, Microsoft. Unlike the big three names in security software, MSE puts barely any burden on a computer, don't even know it's there until it blocks something nasty. Avast is similarly light on its digital feet. Plus it has the Pirate Talk option. ;) Norton software has been garbage bloatware since Peter Norton left the company.
