<< If you install Norton, immediately turn off anything you can via the 
Extensions Manager that doesn't prevent the program from working.>>

I don't understand this at all. Then how do you use any of the programs that 
use those extensions? Or, are you talking about when you have to use Nortons 
to repair stuff, from the hard drive.? You do know you can't repair the hard 
drive that Nortons is run from, right?

<< Watch out if you ever have to boot from their emergency CD, as some 
versions 
will try to do things to your possibly munged hard drive *before* trying 
to fix it. Dumb but true. >>

Very interesting. Like I said, some like Nortons, some don't. My Mom uses 
Nortons fully installed, and has no problems. I mainly use it, booting from 
the CD, in emergency situations. Well, that and benchmarking. I don't see how 
this is possible, unless you have been using the prevention programs, 
(filesaver, etc.) part of Nortons.

I would guess that different people have different experiences regarding 
Nortons, because we use our Macs differently, and because we probably use 
conflicting or compatible programs.
