Security researchers worked overtime in 2007, which turned out to be a nightmare for software vendors from day one.
Symantec's next-generation security software is officially named Norton 360 and faces a delay from the original September due date.
Computer security firm Symantec this week claimed 300 changes in the new versions of Norton Internet Security and Antivirus would address past performance problems.
Symantec is thinking up ways to take the pain out of a security feature in Windows Vista.
Symantec is preparing to launch an online security and backup service in Australia next month, which will directly compete with Microsoft's OneCare Live.

Consumers now are getting more for less of their money when they buy security software.

Coming off a good quarter for Symantec's consumer businesses, CEO John Thompson warns against viewing Windows Vista as a solution to security woes.
For home and student use, we think Norton 360 represents the best value for ease of use, tools offered, and overall system performance. We recommend it over McAfee Total Protection and Microsoft Windows Live OneCare.
While Symantec's protection is solid, the overall user experience within Norton Internet Security 2008 could be much, much better. Not all the features work together and use fewer system resources.
