  The software won't "activate" without an Internet connection.
Symantec says phone activation is not possible.  As the software was
destined for stand-alone computers with no outside connectivity, it
can't be used.  This wasn't listed in the product requirements.  I'm
currently fighting with customer service to get my money back.

  So, right, Symantec still sucks.  In other news, water still wet,
sky still blue.
