Symantecs Norton brand is one of the best known in the antivirus realm. Norton Anti. Virus has been around since the early 9. The current edition of Symantec Norton Anti. Virus Basic aced our hands on tests, and, despite the basic in the name, it includes some unusual advanced features. Jdk 7 Update 25. It remains an antivirus Editors Choice. This PC specific product costs 4. Bitdefender, Trend Micro, and Webroot all go for 3. Mc. Afee costs 5. Tech support for Norton Anti. Virus Basic is limited, and you dont get the Virus Protection Promise. Its pretty clear that Symantec would really prefer that you purchase Symantec Norton Security Premium or one of the other suite products. The suites do cost quite a bit more, though, so if you just need to protect one PC, choosing the antivirus makes sense. Multi Stage Install. As with Mc. Afee Anti. Virus Plus and many modern security utilities, the easiest way to install Norton is to go online and register your product key. Doing so gets you a simple choice install on this device, or send an email to install on another device. You download a tiny installer stub which in turn downloads the latest product. I did find that checking for updates immediately after installation found 1. Protection Updates Current. Theres a bit more to getting the product fully installed. When you launch a browser, Norton prompts you to install not one but four extensions Norton Safe Search, which marks dangerous search results Norton Home Page, which puts Safe Search and a collection of quick links on your home page Norton Toolbar, which rates the pages you visit and includes a search box and Norton Identity Safe, a full scale password manager. Norton makes installing the extensions very simple, with a hand holding wizard that leads you through every step. Once youve set up all your browsers, your installation is complete. At first glance, the products main window seems unchanged since last year, but theres one very handy new feature. Have you ever gotten frustrated flipping through pages of settings and not finding the one you want Now you just click on the search icon and start typing what youre looking for. Youll get a list of matching topics with an explainer panel that pops up when you point to one. You can perform some simple actions, like turning a feature on or off right in the search box. The new Help Center puts a wealth of support resources at your fingertips. You can watch video tutorials, read the manual, and check for new versions. Clicking to get support automatically runs a diagnostic tool that can fix some problems. If it cant, it offers a link to online tech support. Other links let you manage your account, visit the Norton community forums, and more. Scan Selections. With most antivirus tools, you can choose three types of scan. The full scan, as the name implies, checks everything on your computer. The quick scan focuses on malware in memory and in common malware haunts. For a custom scan, you specify where and how it should check for malware. Norton gives you all three of those, but it doesnt stop there. If you still feel that you have malware even after a regular full scan, you can launch the aggressive Norton Power Eraser tool. Theres a faint possibility this tool could damage legitimate programs, and Norton warns you about this. For maximum malware fighting power, it reboots the system and scans at startup. Norton Insight scans your files, checking them against Symantecs monster database of known good files. Trusted files dont need to be scanned theyve already been verified as good. For each file, the Trust Level report lists the level of trust, the number of users among Norton customers and the impact on system resources. If youre having trouble that requires contacting tech support, take a moment first to run the Diagnostic Report scan. It may help you solve the problem on your own. If not, the data in the report can help the support agent sort out your troubles. I timed a full antivirus scan on my standard clean virtual machine. It took an hour and 5. As with many products, a second scan ran faster, but in Nortons case that repeat scan still took 4. Bull. Guard finished a repeat scan in five minutes, Kaspersky in four, and ESET NOD3. Antivirus took just 3. A Norton Insight scan reported that 9. However, a full scan afterward didnt run any more quickly. My Symantec contact explained that engineering recently made some changes that appear to have inadvertently slowed down certain scans, and that theyre working to resolve the problem. Once youve made a full scan, real time protection should take care of any new problems, so a long scan time isnt a serious problem. Editors Note 1. Symantecs engineers did resolve the problem, and pushed out a fix to all users in Live. Update. After the fix, a repeat scan completed in 1. Scores From Excellent to Perfect. Norton relies on many factors when checking for malicious files, including the source of the file. A file downloaded from the internet gets more intense scrutiny than one that was sitting in a folder before antivirus installation. And that makes sense. Rather than just opening an existing folder of malware samples, I put the folder in my Dropbox cloud storage and downloaded it to the test computer. I mixed a collection of uncommon but legitimate utilities with the malware. Going forward, Ill do all my malware testing this way. Norton started picking off samples as soon as the download finished. After a few minutes, it had eliminated all but one of them, while leaving the legitimate files alone. When I launched the one holdout, Norton detected and disinfected it. Dish Tv Set Top Box Software Update here. That makes Norton the only product to earn a perfect 1. Yes, PC Pitstop PC Matic managed 1. It blocks any unknown program, good or bad. Tested using my previous collection of samples, several products managed 1. Webroot and Comodo Antivirus completely blocked every detected sample, thereby earning 1. Malware Protection Results Chart. My malicious URL blocking test evaluates how well an antivirus prevents internet based malware from infesting the test computer. This test starts with a feed of malware hosting URLs supplied by MRG Effitas. I use the very latest URLs, usually no more than 2. I launch each URL and note whether the antivirus blocks access in the browser, eliminates the download, or does nothing. When I have 1. 00 valid data points, its time to check the results. For most of the test, Nortons detection remained evenly balanced between blocking URLs and eliminating downloads. It caught some downloads before I even clicked Save. In all, it blocked 5. URL level and 4. 4 percent during download, for a total of 9. Thats the same score it achieved last time, and still the best of any current product. Trend Micro Antivirus Security came very close, with 9. Norton took the top score in my malicious URL blocking test, and the highest possible score in my malware protection test. Thats quite a feat. Decent Lab Results. I mentioned that the full power of Nortons malware detection relies on many factors, including the source of a file. When confronted with a static collection of samples, it doesnt necessarily work as well as in a real world situation. Thats the reason Symantec gives for its good not great scores in some tests by independent antivirus labs. Lets start with the bad news. MRG Effitas runs two tests, one specific to banking Trojans and one using a variety of malware types.
