...from virus, worms and phishing? How safe is my computer...? Do I need anything else..?
I do have anti virus as well and it is up to date.... thanks for reassuring me....
However ..I keep getting pop up alerts that my computer is at risk but not from Norton...they are exclamation marks in triangles do I just ignore these..?
 
well if its updated i think ur computer is safe

just make sure the subscription has not expired and it is updated
 
Norton Internet Security does detect viruses, spyware, trojans etc but it is not 100% secure. I would recommend using free programs like AVG anti-spyware, A-Squared free and you can also use the Spyware Doctor (starter edition) which is available with the Google pack.
AVG --- http://free.grisoft.com/doc/download-free-anti-spyware/us/frt/0
A-Squared free --- http://www.emsisoft.com/en/software/free/
Google Pack ---http://pack.google.com/intl/en/pack_installer.html?hl=en&gl=us
 
For those people who they called norton fans like me its exactly best choice. You are secure from virus's worms and phishing and anything that effect to your computer security + emails and windows user account.
Cheers!
 
yes you also need norton antivirus... the internet security only aske you to block certain websites and stuff. also make sure you update your software every while.
 
it will surely protect ur computer but u should keep ur anti- virus updated......its simple if u have an internet connection then click on the update button and then follow the instructions......and it includes anti virus,firewall and antispyware
 
Hi it is the best antivirus you r using which provides the strongest all round protection to your pc but it slows down the pc a bit .you can go for Kaspersky Internet security .
it is a good option .I was using Norton 360 finally uninstalled it and now have kaspersky internet security which is working great till now.
good luck
