Congratulations on your new computer? Is it Vista and do you use Dragon.
That kind of worries me because my computer came with Norton and I have that

Yes, by all means. This is most important if you purchase anything but a

Most to all of those nasty viruses are designed to attack the PC platform

Perhaps the seller will bundle in that software with the sale. You only
