i purchased this and then immediately tried to install it it would download the software but it would not install i contacted norton on chat explained the problem and they spent 25 hours trying to 1 take over my computer  software would not install and 2  install norton  the next day i spent another 3 hours on chat trying to get  help to install it and the tech just could not get the software to  install in fact this tech quit the chat sending me a message that was going to help me of course his message did not contain anything new i finally got someone at norton on the phone he was able to download the software and take over my computer to install norton  he went thru dos to download his program to control my computer finally after about 20 minutes he found the problem that prevented the installation i had set my system so that it would not generate pop ups for permission to change the setting on my computer once he changed this setting he installed norton  i have over 35 years as a professional in  computer  i have never seen this problem and was extremely frustrated with the installation problem  i especially did not like giving control of my computer to a stranger but i was left with no other choice  a few other things  i had to go to nortons web site to down load the software but i first had to make an account and agree to  automatic renewal and was forced to provide a credit card for the next renewal before i could even download and install the software i had already purchased  after my software was installed i canceled the automatic renewal  funny thing  went i went to load it on my laptop i had no problems at all the automatic renewal  and credit card requirements are a scam no one should be forced to provide a credit card for renewal even before they are able to download the software that they already paid for i had been using macafee for years but i got tired of all the annoying  pop ups and and upgrading my software  sure i could shut down the automatic  software up grades but then i got reminders that it was off  once norton was installed on my desktop things seem to work fine i an not sure if i will renew or not but that will depend how well it works and it will not be automatic and i will not buy it from norton when you can get it much cheaper elsewhere  i do like the interface and what the programs offers besides the virus protection and not one pop up all day except when  i check my email it continues to say it is checking for spam even though i check the box to turn the pop up off
