The year 2000 has certainly been a busy one for virus hunters. As the line blurs between viruses and security hacks, the one thing that remains clear is that security is no longer an optional cost for business.
Symantec plans to introduce a security product later this year that will take on Microsoft's forthcoming Windows OneCare and Vista security technology.
Windows Vista will be better equipped to protect itself from malicious rootkits than its predecessor, Windows XP, but because so many 'legitimate' applications use rootkit techniques, Microsoft has decided to implement two crucial anti-rootkit technologies only in 64-bit versions of its new operating system.

While Norton Confidential beta from Symantec aims to protect your online transactions, and its antisphishing toolbar compares favourably to Netcraft's own offering, we found the Norton package to be overly large, including many other Symantec applets that seem unnecessary.
