Norton 360 - Even for the Non-Geek
You know I’m not a technical wizard, right? I’m sure I’ve mentioned before that I’m clueless when it comes to most things that involve technology. When something happens to my computer, the first person I call is my webmaster. Why do I think my webmaster can fix MY computer from 1500 miles away? Actually, sometimes, she knows enough to walk me through the steps to fix it. But, if that doesn’t work, then I call my local web guru, and he comes over and fixes whatever I messed up. Yup, usually, it’s something that I’ve done to the computer - but, he’s so nice to listen to me complain and then go about his business and just fix my mess!
Recently, I was sent the new Norton 360 Version 2.0, to test out and try for a year. And do you know what? I was able to install it and set it up WITHOUT help (well, without outside help - I did have to visit the help files a few times)! I was SO impressed!!!
With the release of the new Norton 360 Version 2.0, my computers have never been more protected. Besides updated antivirus, firewall, antispyware and intrusion protections…the new version also includes anti-phishing security, which can help protect you from identity theft; as well as new backup options that include iPods, HD-DVD discs, Blu-ray, and shared drives.
What’s more, the program has been made more user-friendly, with easy to navigate backup lists, a Registry File Cleanup to help you remove unnecessary files and keep your computer running at its most efficient, a free download that includes AntiSpam and Parental Control and Network Monitoring, which keeps track of everything from how secure your network is to the status of your wireless security.
Basically, your computer has never been in better hands, whether you’re watching video files at home or checking your email at your favorite wireless café. With Norton 360 Version 2.0. Your life easier, but you can rest assured knowing that your online life is always well-protected, no matter the threat.
Take it from a non-geek — this is the best software I’ve ever installed and used.
