This is the software publisher's description.
Norton 360 is designed to deliver all-in-one security for everything the computer users in your family care about. Easy to use, it helps provide automatic and transparent protection from viruses and spyware, fraudulent Web sites, phishing scams, hackers, identity theft, and more. With a renewable subscription, up to three PCs in your household can be provided with Norton 360 protection, safeguarding your family when they play games, send and receive email, download files, chat, or surf the Web. And transaction security features allow you to shop and bank online with confidence.
Norton 360 also helps keep your PCs tuned for peak performance, and safeguards the data on them by making it easy to back up photos, music, financial documents, and other files—and to restore them at any time. Flexible options allow you to back up your files to CD, DVD, and USB devices. For even more convenience, you can also set up automatic backups to an attached hard drive or a secure online storage service* to safeguard your important files in the event something happens to your PC. And for enhanced performance, a smart background scheduler automatically schedules key Norton 360 functions such as scans, backups, and tune-ups so that they don’t interfere with your PC activities.
What's new? 360 v6 adds the Norton Management interface, enabling you to remotely access your PC security via the cloud, an Identity Safe function so you can keep your personal informations secure and more.
Do you agree?

No good want 4 back again
Upgraded to this version twice and both times has caused problems to the extent that Windows XP wouldn't boot up and the message I got was it was caused by new hardware or software! Only new software or hardware I had was version 5! Shame as it looked quite good, but made me wonder if it was trying to do too much! When I had it installed first time, I couldn't defrag, computer hung and also have had problems backing up to my ext HD, when previously had none! I've put my version 3 back on and looking to go back to the 4 I was using before, which was stable and caused me no problems!

Fails the usefulness test.
Despite this being the latest version on Nortons much over rated anti-virus software they have still failed to add network and 64 bit compatibility, if Norton want to stay at the forefront, if they were ever there, of the anti-virus community they need urgently to sort out these major failings of their latest offering.
