Norton AntiVirus 2010 Review

Norton Antivirus 2010

Symantec_Corp Norton Antivirus 2010 persists along its revitalization pathway that commenced last year and has consistently moved forward towards becoming a more refined, efficient and better performing antivirus program.

It defends your PC against viruses, spyware, bots, worms, and other malicious code without bogging you down or getting in your way.  It quickly safeguards against the latest viral threats and easily installs in only fifty-four seconds, requiring no system reboots. 

Hackers and spammers will be thwarted with the around-the-clock protection provided by the Symantec intrusion detection system. It prevents and blocks computer viruses and malware. Positive actions eradicate open threats and banishes fresh threats right away to guard your personal computer. 

Antivirus 2010 uses a small memory footprint and its intrusion detection system detects hidden code before its invasion. The updating system ensures that you’re always covered and the Symantec security network regularly updates with new definitions that are installed painlessly within minutes.

2010 incorporates the new SONAR 2 technology, which keeps you protected against both new and unknown threats.

Sonar 2 works on the principles of intelligence based technology which speeds up the scanning process and in so doing, lowers the time needed for scanning. After a scan, it continues to sift through the online intelligence network in order to detect the trustworthiness of files present on your system.

Once the trust or threat level is determined, it then performs the scanning of suspect files. The process consumes negligible time for scanning and this means your PC will be available for use more often instead of being tied up doing security tasks. At risk files are scanned with dramatic speed.

Norton Antivirus 2010 efficiently provides cleaning processes and finds threats easily. It clearly and concisely shows all the pertinent information regarding the CPU including the memory resources used by key applications necessary for the correct functioning of your computer system.

It provides a clear picture of the threats it finds, identifies sources and shows the negative effects those threats could bring down upon your machine. You’re cautioned about the threats and you’re able to prevent them from infecting your system by simply side-stepping them. Overall security is maintained by frequently updating the malware definitions which allows the swift identification of current threats.

Norton Antivirus 2010 opens up a new chapter in protection systems for Symantec. It is the lightest and fastest antivirus application they’ve created thus far and builds upon updated technology based on their experience.
