Upgrading To Norton AV 2005
First and foremost NEVER NEVER renew the subscriptions to NAV. The subscription renewal is the biggest...
Well it's finally happened. I can't renew my subscription for virus definitions for my NAV 2000 as it isn't supported anymore.
My computer is a Dim 4100, P3 866, 512mg of SDRAM, running Win ME. Has anyone tried upgrading to NAV 2005 with a similar setup. I am concerned that with my older machine it will, (to use a phrase I've seen in posts about Norton) make my machine 'run like a pig' (and so far, it's always zipped along pretty good). I also have been reading in archived posts at Google that NAV 2005 doesn't 'make friends' very easily with Win ME...often hard to get to install properly, makes your system act strange afterward, etc. If I DON'T get 2005, what are opinions re some of the other virus protection, including the free ones like AVG and Avast? AND...will it be easy to get NAV 2000 to uninstall if I DO switch to another virus program??? I really don't know what I should do at this point and welcome any opinions, especially from those who have a similar setup in their computer, run Win ME and have tried to upgrade. Thanks much.
