    Ooooh Norton 2007 must be very advanced since we are only at 2006 , I'm sure its a much improved product over the 2006 version , and free too , all you have to do is pay for it then go trough a simple reabte proccess .


    Or you can simply install AVG free , its great with free automatic full updates ( including virus def. ) , guarenteed to work all trough 2007 .

    I heard Norton 2142 is finally going to include a new virus engine .
