Symantec's next-generation security software is officially named Norton 360 and faces a delay from the original September due date.
Security researchers worked overtime in 2007, which turned out to be a nightmare for software vendors from day one.
McAfee said on Tuesday that it plans to release four versions of its new "Falcon" security products, which is designed to rival Symantec and newcomer Microsoft.
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.
Symantec is about to launch Norton 360 in Australia and although the product seems to have some interesting features, it will take more than marketing hype to persuade me that the company has stopped making bloated and unreliable software.

In this special report, ZDNet Australia presents a three-part exclusive video interview with Westpac Bank chief information security officer, David Backley, in addition to tips and reviews for businesses to thwart security attacks.
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.
