sorry Norton in the past you were not pestering so much to fall in this trap on spending money I dont have. so i'm seriously thinking and most likely going back to MacAfee. !

In effetti fate abbastanza schifo, uno pensa di aver acquistato il pacchetto più completo e po si ritrovo ulteriori soldi da spendere per avere un sistema che risolva tutti i problemi del computer. Esposto dal rivenditore ci sono mille variabili con i pallini che via via dimostrano la maggior completezza del software ma poi ti ritrovi la sorpresa a casa dopo che hai lanciato il programma e fatta la prima scansione, ma non erà possibile fare una ulteriore variabile completa? Direi pubblicità ingannevole presso i rivenditori. Da denuncia.
