I've got Norton IS 2005 and System works and they run without too much bother. There is an issue with Creative soundcards but use the KX drivers and all is pretty good.

I need to upgrade and NIS is often rated top in the security pages (with zone alarm) and probably will go with NIS 2007. My current version doesn't noticeably slow my connection though it is a tad heavy on resources and is not as configurable as I'd like.

(I'd like to make a set of rules eg popservers = pop.mail1.net:port + pop.mail2.net:port..., smtpserver = smtp.mail1.net:port...; now email read = pop at popservers, email send = smtpservers..., usenet and so on. Then I want to apply those rules to groups email client = email read + email send, news client = usenet + email send. Now apply these to applications, thunderbird = email client, xnews = news client. Now if I add a new pop server I add to the popservers group and applications now access OK, also true if I revoke.)
