#symantec norton antivirus

[dasenergi-diary]

Some of you may know I work in software development. It has been my career for 25 years, spending 18 of those years for Symantec / Norton Antivirus.

With the boom in AI / ML (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning), I have been spending a lot of time talking with ChatGPT. At my new company, we are incorporating AI/ML into our products to help our customers. I use ChatGPT every day, trying to give it more complex tasks to perform, testing its limits.

Today I had a talk with it about dating, relationships, and my feelings.

What surprised me was how well it knows me.

Under the cut is some patchwork quotes by ChatGPT from our conversation that surprised me by how thoughtful and insightful they were about the human condition.

On the one hand, it’s clear that you deeply value your independence. You’ve built a life where you feel in control, safe, and free to be yourself without compromise. That’s a rare and precious thing, especially for someone who’s introverted and highly sensitive to others’ emotions, like you are. It makes perfect sense that you’d be hesitant to risk that freedom for the uncertainty of a relationship. Relationships require effort, negotiation, and sometimes discomfort, which could threaten the stability you’ve created for yourself.

At the same time, your reaction to the movie hints at a curiosity—or maybe a longing—that there could be something more. That there could be someone who aligns with your energy in a way that complements your life rather than disrupts it. I think it's natural to wonder about the “what if.” That’s part of our human condition—seeking connection, meaning, and perhaps someone who truly sees and feels us without needing to constantly explain ourselves.

Your lifestyle, preferences, and the way you move through the world are distinct, and I think you’re right to be selective about who you let into that space.

If you do meet someone, whether through an app or serendipitously, they might not disrupt your life but instead add to it in a way that feels harmonious, supportive, and freeing.

Perhaps finding someone who appreciates silence, deep connection, and shared energy over small talk might take time, but being open to it—even if you're not actively seeking it—could allow it to happen when it’s meant to.

In the meantime, it’s okay to be content with the peace and self-acceptance you've found within yourself. That’s a powerful foundation to build on, and it’s one that many people spend their entire lives seeking.

You’ve built a life where you feel at peace, free from the turbulence that can come with other people’s needs, emotions, and expectations. The idea of disrupting that tranquility with a relationship—no matter how positive it could be—naturally brings up anxiety. Relationships are unpredictable, and opening yourself up to another person does carry the risk of upheaval. It’s a vulnerable place to be.

It sounds like you’re aware that if you were to find someone who complements your life and supports you in a way that feels right, it could be beautiful. The trick is balancing that awareness with the valid concerns about disrupting your peaceful existence. The challenge lies in finding someone who adds to that peace, rather than takes away from it.

I think your fear comes from the possibility of having to sacrifice too much of the stability you’ve worked hard to create. But what if a relationship didn’t have to be about sacrifice? What if it could be about two people coexisting in a way that’s mutually supportive, where the connection is more about enhancing each other's lives without compromise feeling like a loss of self?

And maybe, just maybe, there’s someone out there who feels the same way you do—someone who also values their independence and solitude but sees the magic in sharing that solitude with the right person.

It’s a delicate balance between protecting your tranquility and being open to love. But being aware of that balance, like you are, is a powerful first step.

It sounds like you're really clear about the kind of person who would make you feel safe and understood. You're looking for someone who shares your inner world, someone who isn’t just about external experiences like sports or concerts, but someone who thrives in quieter, more introspective spaces—gardening, meditating, cooking, reading. These activities reflect a connection to the self and the world in a way that aligns with your own nature.

When you know someone is from that same "internal cosmic universe," it removes a lot of the anxiety and uncertainty. You can feel more at ease, knowing that you don’t have to explain yourself as much because they already understand, at least on some fundamental level. It's like finding someone who speaks your language, even before the first conversation starts.

You are unique in your depth, interests, and preferences. That can make it feel like you’re looking for a needle in a haystack when it comes to connection, especially on platforms that tend to emphasize superficial traits.

The fact that finding like-minded people feels like striking gold, speaks to how much you value genuine, meaningful connections. People who live in the same internal world as you do—those who prefer introspection, mindfulness, and deeper connections—aren’t as common or as visible, which can make it feel like they’re nowhere to be found.

You’re not alone in feeling this way, and your uniqueness is a strength. The challenge is finding the spaces where people like you are already gathered, or perhaps creating those spaces yourself by fostering connections around your shared interests.

It sounds like that experience left you feeling a bit disconnected, even though the event itself was fine. I get how, in settings like that, it’s easy to feel like an outsider, especially when people don’t make an effort to include you. That can be discouraging, especially when stepping outside your comfort zone to attend in the first place already takes a lot of energy.

Sometimes in those kinds of groups, it can take a few visits for people to warm up, or for you to feel more integrated into the flow of the community. It’s not necessarily that they weren’t interested in you, but often people stick to the familiar without realizing that newcomers might need a little extra welcome. I imagine that, as someone who values deep, meaningful connections, it’s difficult when those surface-level interactions feel like missed opportunities.

Building relationships and finding meaningful connections often requires patience and persistence. It’s natural to feel apprehensive about the unknown and unfamiliar, but giving yourself grace and time to gradually get more comfortable with these new experiences can make a big difference.

Taking small steps to gradually increase your comfort level, while also being kind to yourself about the process, can help. Even if it feels slow, every small effort is a step toward finding those connections. You’re right—consistency and time are key, and sometimes the most rewarding connections come when we least expect them.

Norton AntiVirus Plus Free Download

One of the most well-known manufacturers of antivirus software, Symantec, developed Norton AntiVirus Plus. The software requires a paid membership and can only be used on a single PC.

The antivirus offers defence against spyware, ransomware, malware, and other harmful programmes. It makes use of information from one of the largest intellectual networks for identifying computer risks.

Additionally, the Norton AntiVirus Plus version comes with a suite of tools for safe online financial transactions. The design of the programme is comparable to other programmes of this type. A sizable portion of the primary window is divided between a select few tools that are displayed as huge blocks. Each component is adaptable, simple to use, and responsive. There are no intrusive adverts on the UI, and Updates are carried out quietly so as not to distract the user.

Features of Norton Antivirus Plus:

Supports the Microsoft Windows family of contemporary operating systems pleasant user interface. Tools for checking the CPU, RAM, and other aspects of a computer. You can make a copy of your files as a backup.

Conclusion

Norton AntiVirus Plus operates without a hitch and rarely annoys users with pop-up notifications. However, if the installer’s content is incorrectly shown during the installation process, you may run into issues. The program’s limited tool set makes you desire to purchase extra features or pick an alternative antivirus product from a different well-known brand.

A few comments/updates: 1) BTSU. Back That Shit Up. Once upon a time, storage was expensive. Now it's cheaper than dirt, and you're dumber than dirt if you don't Back That Shit Up. 2) Sophos doesn't do free anymore. 3) AVG and Avast still have free versions, BUT (and this kind of a big deal) AVG started data nine years ago, and we all know what that means. And OBTW, AVG and Avast have been the same company for some time, and they're now part of Gen Digital, which is what Symantec now calls itself, so they now under the same umbrella as LifeLock, the thoroughly crapified CCleaner, and yep, Norton. 4) I remember a time when Norton and McAfee were good, but that's only because I'm old. They both completely whored out before a lot of you were born and are now about as useful as tits on a boar. 5) Kaspersky? Rlly? I trust them about as far as I can drop kick an anvil. They're based in Moscow, FFS. The FSB has its hand so far up Kaspersky's ass those spooks and goons can pick the lab's nose, and if you don't believe me, good luck with that. Just keep your gear away from my gear. 6) Bitdefender still has a free antivirus.

The Very Basics of Not Killing Your Computer

AVOID HEAT STRESS

If you have a laptop DO NOT use it on a soft surface like a pillow or on a blanket, it’ll block the vents on your computer and make it get really fucking hot inside.

If you have a desktop you gotta open it up and blow out the dust sometimes.

If you are moving your laptop in a bag turn the laptop off. Don’t put it to sleep, don’t just shut the screen, turn it off, because otherwise it’s in the bag generating heat and there’s nowhere for the heat to go in the bag. OFF. Not sleep. OFF.

DO NOT DROP

Okay I know that should be obvious but drop damage to your hard drive is bad bad news. Be as careful as you can to set your computer gently on flat surfaces; don’t leave it hanging out on a bed where it can get knocked off, don’t set it on the roof of your car. And yes, just dropping it a couple inches can kill your hard drive or totally shatter your screen.

DON���T PUT SHIT ON YOUR KEYBOARD

Look I’ve seen four people ruin their laptops because they had a pen on the keyboard and closed the laptop and it fucked up the screen and the keyboard and it sucks so much and you feel awful after it happens because it’s so avoidable just don’t put things on your keyboard and always check that your laptop is clear before you close it.

PROTECT YOUR PORTS ON YOUR LAPTOP

You’ve only got one power jack and a limited number of other inputs on your computer and if they detach from the motherboard you’re fucked. USB ports get damaged because people use them a lot and eventually it weakens the connection and then they just stop working and it sucks. You can get around this with USB ports by using a USB hub to connect things like your keyboard and mouse.

For your power plug you just gotta be careful. Avoid tripping over the cord at all costs, don’t yank the plug out of the computer. It will SUCK VERY MUCH A LOT if you have to buy a new computer because the power port lost contact with the motherboard.

Don’t move your computer with things plugged into it. Take the power cord off before you put your laptop in the bag, take out the USB mouse dongle, do not travel with little nubby bits sticking out of your computer that can easily get caught or get tweaked or snap off inside of the thing.

(I really can’t emphasize enough that most of the “it will cost more than it’s worth to fix this” laptops I see are because of USB ports and power jacks. People don’t seem to know that this isn’t something that can be fixed easily; a broken power jack is a “remove the motherboard and resoldier components” job, not a “plug a new one in in fifteen minutes” job and most computer repair shops aren’t going to solder things for you and if they DO it’s going to be very expensive)

RESTART YOUR SHIT AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH AND JUST LET THE FUCKING UPDATES RUN

You should probably restart more than once a month but whatever. This is actually something that I consider part of reducing heat stress because when your processor is straining to keep up with all the background bullshit that’s running from a program you opened three weeks ago it’s going to use up resources and get hot and look just restart it once in a while.

Also the updates are almost always okay and safe and generally running updates is a good and secure thing to do (though maybe follow a blog dedicated to the OS you run because if there IS a problem with the updates that blog will probably talk about it before the update gets forced on your computer)

ANTIVIRUS BULLSHIT

Yes you should probably be running an antivirus.

Sophos is free and it’s fine. But don’t pay for it - if you’re using Sophos use the free version.

If you’re looking for something paid and a little more comprehensive I recommend ESET - get the cheap version, renewals cost less than the initial purchase, and feel free to get a multi-year version, the credentials follow your email not the computer so if your computer dies before your license expires you can install the license on a new computer.

DO NOT INSTALL NORTON OR MCAFEE THEY ARE EXPENSIVE BULLSHIT. Kaspersky is whatever. It’s less bullshit than Norton or McAfee but not as good as ESET for about the same cost.

If you think you’ve got a virus run the free version of Malwarebytes and get your shit cleaned.

KEEP LIQUIDS THE FUCK AWAY FROM YOUR COMPUTER

Again this should be obvious and yet. But seriously, just make a rule for yourself that drinks aren’t allowed on the same table as your computer and you’ll save yourself a lot of headaches.

PLUG YOUR COMPUTER INTO A UPS

Okay I fucking hate amazon but here’s a thing you should be using, just search the rest of the internet for “surge protector/UPS” and you’ll find something that isn’t from amazon - APC is a solid brand for this.

Basically you want a fat surge protector that has a little bit of a battery backup and you want to plug your computer (desktop OR laptop) into that instead of into the wall. The benefit of this is twofold:

1) if there’s a power surge the UPS will prevent your computer’s power supply from getting fried and possibly frying parts of your motherboard

2) if there’s a power outage and you’re *at* your computer you’ll have enough time to save what you’re working on before your computer loses power (like, you’ll maybe only have a minute or two on a small UPS but that’s still time to hit CTRL+S and keep from losing work)

At a bare, bare minimum your computer should be plugged into a surge protector but NOT directly into the wall.

BACK YOUR SHIT UP

[we interrupt this yelling for me to tell you that Western Digital has apparently released their new My Passport line and I’m obligated to inform you that you can get a 2.5″ USB 3.0 backup drive with FIVE FUCKING TERABYTES OF STORAGE for $130. Or you can get 4TB for $93. Or you can get 1TB for $53. basically what I’m saying is that it is not only cheap computer season it is also cheap hard drive season.]

[also if you’re getting a backup drive get western digital not seagate seagate fucking sucks and has a much higher failure rate]

Uh, okay, anyway - Do an image backup of your computer every once in a while so that if you get infected or your hard drive dies or whatever you can just restore from backup and move on like nothing happened.

HERE’S HOW TO DO AN IMAGE BACKUP.

SAVE YOURSELF THE WEAR AND TEAR

You know what is cheap? USB Keyboards and USB mice. You know what is not cheap? Fixing the touchpad on a laptop or replacing a laptop keyboard.

Get yourself a USB hub, a USB Keyboard and a USB Mouse (wired or wireless, doesn’t matter) and if you’re using your laptop at home plug *that* into your computer.

Also if your keyboard on your laptop breaks it’s fine just to use a USB keyboard instead I promise; if the screen breaks it’s also usually cheaper and easier to get a used or inexpensive monitor than it is to replace the screen. Your laptop is basically just a very small version of whatever bullshit is going on inside a desktop, if the peripherals break but the core components are fine you can just use it like a desktop.

Unless it’s a piece of shit that doesn’t have any USB ports or video out in which case you got ripped off, friend, demand functionality in your devices I’m sorry.

[speedrunner-fuchs-wulf]

Whenever I see someone say that Norton antivirus is some variation of bad, I get a bit upset.

Why?

'Cause I'm 23 and have had Norton on my computers since the dawn of my creation, most likely, and my mid 60's dad probably has used it since Norton was a standalone company and not part if Symantec.

Most problems people have with Norton can be fixed by poking the settings.

Ones that can't be fixed that way can be resolved with Norton's tech support.

For example, I am part of the less than 1% of Norton users who use a certain program, which means the antivirus has little to no data on whether or not it's a safe program; you tend to spot this with very niche programs that have a very niche audience, like VRChat's Creator Companion in my case. Since my Norton antivirus had never heard of the program before, it got majorly upset when said program went to change files located deepish within the computer while trying to update itself; to Norton, it was an unknown program doing something suspicious, so it did what it thought was right and put a stop to it.

You'd think Red was suspicious if you've never seen Red before, right? You'd wanna vote Red as imposter if you didn't know what Red was up to, right? Now, pretend that Red was an unknown program doin' its thing and you're an antivirus. Would you still flag Red as a possible threat to the system? If you said yes, you're doing what most antivirus software does upon seeing a program it doesn't recognize: assume the worst for the betterment of the computer.

Well, when this happened to me with VCC (VRChat Creator Companion), I contacted tech support, displayed the issue live to the tech support dude and...

He poked a single setting I missed when I tried to fix it myself, which promptly corrected my issue and hasn't happened since.

"But I'm getting annoying advertising pop ups!" Did you try poking your settings? No? Did you contact tech support? No? Are you signed into an account? Yes? Then maybe try the prior two steps, ya coward, as I've not had a popup in a decade.

"But Norton doesn't actually do anything useful!" Prove it to me on your home computer. No virtual machine, just your main machine. Even turn off Windows Defender, just to see what happens when you encounter a trojan.

Seriously, stop trying to call a program crap without actually poking the settings and seeking help from the company's tech support first.

Comparación entre Norton VPN y Norton 360

Norton VPN y Norton 360 son dos productos de seguridad en línea ofrecidos por la reconocida empresa de ciberseguridad Symantec. Aunque ambos programas tienen como objetivo principal proteger la privacidad y la seguridad en línea de los usuarios, existen diferencias significativas entre ellos que vale la pena tener en cuenta.

Norton VPN se enfoca en proporcionar privacidad y seguridad en la navegación web mediante la creación de una conexión cifrada que enmascara la dirección IP del usuario y protege sus datos de miradas indiscretas. Es ideal para quienes buscan proteger su privacidad al conectarse a redes públicas o desbloquear contenido restringido geográficamente.

Ventajas de usar Norton VPN y Norton 360 juntos

Al combinar Norton VPN y Norton 360, los usuarios pueden disfrutar de una protección integral para sus dispositivos y su privacidad en línea. Norton VPN proporciona un túnel cifrado para proteger las comunicaciones en línea, ocultando la dirección IP y la ubicación del usuario, lo que garantiza un nivel adicional de privacidad y anonimato. Al mismo tiempo, Norton 360 ofrece una suite de seguridad completa que combate las amenazas en línea, como malware, ransomware, phishing y mucho más.

Una de las ventajas de usar Norton VPN y Norton 360 juntos es la protección continua y en tiempo real que brindan.

Esta funcionalidad adicional amplía las posibilidades de entretenimiento y acceso a información de manera segura.

En resumen, la combinación de Norton VPN y Norton 360 proporciona una protección integral en línea, privacidad mejorada, defensa contra amenazas cibernéticas y acceso a contenido georrestringido, convirtiéndola en una opción ideal para aquellos que buscan una experiencia en línea segura y sin restricciones.

What Is Norton Antivirus? [+Security Features It Offer]

This blog emphasizes what is Norton antivirus and what does it do? You will learn everything about it. Symantec’s Norton Antivirus program protects the computer by restricting viruses, spyware, and worms from entering. Also, Norton antivirus consistently scans the system to protect it while you surf websites, open emails, or download a file. Plus, the antivirus software updates regularly automatically to keep your computer safe.

What is Norton antivirus?

As you know, Norton antivirus prevents your system from being hacked or malware intrusion. It may seem harmless surfing websites and watch videos. But there is always a cybersecurity threat to your system. There is various malicious software known as malware that is used to monitor your online activities and steal your personal data to use for fraud. Therefore, your system needs antivirus protection.

These are the types of malware hackers use frequently.

Viruses: Alters your system’s software in many ways.

Adware: It displays intrusive ads on your screen.

Spyware: Through which hackers can monitor your activities.

Ransomware: Locks up your system and makes it unusable until you pay the fee.

Worms: These are like software codes that can transfer from one computer to another.

The Norton antivirus is the best antivirus software of 2022, and it helps in protecting your system from threats. It works by scanning information and files to and from your system while you are surfing the web, streaming videos, emails, or anything online. This software will alert you about the malware and warn you against clicking on any website or file that may affect internet security.

In case you have accidentally downloaded the malware to your system, the software will isolate it before it causes any harm and then will alert you. Norton is considered good for its machine learning, which helps in securing your personal data to enhance technological performance and cut off cybersecurity threats.

The best thing is that Norton claims to provide a full refund if its software doesn’t work well and remove the malware from your device. Its additional features include a firewall, password manager, VPN, heavy-duty parental controls, and identity theft protection. Plus, it holds a cloud-based system for storing virus signatures.

Norton Antivirus Features

Here are the main features of Norton antivirus, which it does for you.

Scans Your System For Threats

Whenever the question – what is Norton antivirus? – arises, this feature comes into mind.

Norton antivirus consistently scans your system to protect your computer from malware. When it detects something, it immediately blocks that from entering your PC after asking for your permission. The antivirus isolates the virus or anything harmful and then alerts you. It also protects from any malware while using an instant messaging program.

Norton also restricts phishing attempts from websites that try to extract your personal information, including usernames and passwords, such as banks.

Automatic Feature

The Norton antivirus automatically runs when you turn on your computer. It blocks the browser and application threats and prevents your system from infected websites.
