Ce programme est déjà installé dans Google Chrome. Pourquoi me relancer à tout bout de champ pour l'installer ?

Nirgends eine Supportadresse zu finden!

I agree with the point of complaints from all of those who have given a one 1 star recension. Those people who have given 5 star recension and doesn't voice any complain are those people whith very strong finances who doesn't mind spending more and more money for Norton. Norton is, in other words, a program for rich people, not a program for normal folks with normal income. In the long run Norton will loose customers by this way of acting, because the rich part of the population are in minority. But Norton is of cause free to act as it likes, but in my opinion I think they will loose by this kind of policy.
