Go in to any major software retailer in the UK and you’ll find the shelves dominated by two or three key security brands. One of these is Symantec products and their anti-virus product has been around for eons, so some would regard it as trust tried-and-tested technology. For fighting the latest threats, it is certainly an excellent choice.

However, over the last couple of revisions, the interface has had an overhaul and various pro-active modules implemented to make sure that it finds the latest threats when you start up your computer, so you don’t always need to run a full system check. The snag is, it’s these changes that slowed the software to the point where it affected systems.

Norton AntiVirus 2013 ships with a number of small but essential new features and offers comprehensive real time protection.
