Antivirus subscription = biggest waste of money next to subscription online games... at least you can play the games.
If the Death Star had affiliate Death Stars, is it somehow different to work on one of the affiliates? They all take their marching orders from the same folks…
^ What exactly do you mean by "antivirus scam"?
Most people, particularly those that don't use P2P or torrents and browse only well known sites have absolutely no need for anti-virus/trojan programs. Especially costly subscription ones when there free variants that will quell any latent paranoia.

Wrong. You can get viruses from websites. My Wordpress blog and three friends' sites were hacked and used to propagate viruses.
If you're going to use a PC[*], please use an antivirus program; free or otherwise.
[*] PC is here defined as "computer running Windows". If you are a Linux user or Mac user, you are, of course, smarmily resistant to these pests and can skip running AV software for the time being, ya smarmy bastards.
I dated a girl who worked as a reporter and weekend anchor at a Fox affiliate station for a couple years. The station manager had complete creative freedom when it came to content.

There's a pretty big difference between Fox News Channel the the affiliates?

Do you think that Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes concern themselves with affiliates?
Actually yes, yes I do. What's the point of being king if you can't exert your influence over your kingdom?

Free anti-virus is better than none, but its not as good as most subscription based systems.
Best way to infect someone, hijack a website and run the script. Also jpeg's can and have been known to hide virus' and with the increase in the MAC's user base, it too is starting to come under attack.
If you don't have any anti-virus then you are crippling everyone else, as a zombie pc is used to infect others.
(And no, there is no obvious way of knowing without scanning)

the 'macs don't get viruses' is a load of bollocks. You are less likely, granted, but not immune.

The title says fail, the clip came from failblog.org, and yet no one saw fit to fail it? I'm shocked!
Norton Antivirus IS a virus. Most of you probably know that already, but for those who don't consider this a helpful public service announcement.
Unfortunately, this is a 2 year old article and things with the program have changed since this was written. The author is uninformed at best. And his points are pretty much ignorant.
"disgusting services activated and eating your computer resources." AND "You're NOT PROTECTED AGAINST THE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE PROBLEMS THAT AWAIT YOU!! ACTIVATE THE TRIAL"
Is this guy serious with this shit?
Grossly inaccurate. Neither NAV nor NIS tries to scare you into subscribing or re-subscribing. It simply lets you know the subscription is up and you should renew or you will not be protected. The reason the alert was put in there was because it didn't used to warn you and people were getting infected. Guess who suggested we add the warning to the program? THE CUSTOMERS!
Also, if you don't register the trial. Simply uninstall it. What kind of idiot would leave it on the system to take up resources if it's not a fully functional program. IE; you didn't choose to pay for the subscription when the trial is up?
It's also a 1 year old dupe
for me nortons has always been worse than useless as it caused more damage than good.
