This is just marketing

This is an abuse of Wikipedia and not appropriate.

I agree

"Norton 360 is rated much better than NOD32 and is leading in its field of virus protection" What kind of statement is that? Where's the proof? where are the numbers? why is NOD32 the ONLY other AV product mentioned? Why is this sentence tagged on there rather then in it's own heading.

this page IS just marketing. ColbyWolf 21:43, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Norton 360 is a program with many problems for the user. It is probably a beta-version that doesn't work as it should do. Symantec makes money with a beta-version ! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.66.90.211 (talk) 20:04, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Norton 360 Icon.png

Image:Norton 360 Icon.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Removal of Compatibility Section

Does anyone oppose removing the Compatibility section? It seems unnecessary, poorly written, and bias. --Kycook (talk) 17:27, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

removed it. its very content sounds pretty absurd, in the first place, and looked more like a biased and deliberately worded ode to norton. --Hard Core Rikki (talk) 13:03, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

In a retro-spec the section actually encouraged me to re-purcase a firewall I long left behind because of former Norton products being incompatible. It could and probably should be reworded. And even if someone is ANTI Norton it doesn't limit or stop them from adding a similar section in other firewall/anti virus programs. But in a general sense it may allow users more choice when deciding on a secondary firewall or spy ware program. Without fear (or lack of knowledge) of one of the two competing programs to utterly destroy (or disable) the other. So the information should be available for anyone who may wonder if the new 100$ computer program they wanted to buy (or all-ready bought) wont become a new coaster for their Soda. --OSSA88 (talk) 14:22, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Reviewed Compatibility Section and removed the Reference pointing to Mcafee and its Incompatibilities. I believe this best for a Mcafee or even on those particular programs (working or not). It should not be compared to a accepted competitor on "hostile grounds" so to speak. --OSSA88 (talk) 14:29, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

2 Logos

Do we need 2 logos in the infobox? Can we choose one? --Kycook (talk) 17:30, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
