I used Norton Internet Security for three years, and as a product it's very
good in its own way.  However the latest version is problematic with Jaws
and when I deleted it, it left behind a lot of rubbish, in the registry and
scattered throughout the computer.  It also uses a lot of system resources,
something you notice when you finally manage to get rid of it. 

The thing with Norton is that it's a trusted name that we've all heard of.
Now though it's pretty bad with jaws and I for one have had to turn to other
security suites.
