forget norton... I use to like them but after this, like Sony, they can rot in hell for all I care. My security and my computer applications and my IDENTITY mean more to me than some dumbass company. Think about it... if you use a virus scan tool and you read Norton Antivirus and you installed it... do you think you're going to remove it? I highly doubt it. Congratz Norton for gaining 2nd place in the dumbass hall of fame.

sorry, any copmpany "experimenting" with rootkits doesn't deserve use... I'll find something better. As for One Care, I used it on my XP system, but I didn't exactly take a liking to it

One.care is stupid, it blocks anything and everything it gets its paws on.

The government took a day off.
Actually lol norton took a minute to 'define' a rootkit recently, trying to distance themselves from Sony. The claimed the terminology used would be damaging.
THEIR OWN FAULT!
