    99% Of All Virus Attacks Occur While Online, So Offline Statistics Actually Don't Matter Unless You Are Inserting An External Drive That Has A Virus On It... I Just Removed Norton After It Kept Taking Up 50-100% Of My CPU, And Wouldn't Give It Back When Not Idle. And The Bloat/SPAM Was Getting Ridiculous Considering Norton Is A Paid For Application Which Is Not Suppose To Have Ads At All.

Has anyone else had this problem? If so, how did you solve it?

      Norton VPN is very easy to setup. It comes with Norton 360. Beside where it shows VPN you click turn on and it's on. At first I didn't like it because I found it to be disruptive but made changes in settings for it and now I'm okay with it.

    So the issue with all these reveiws is they are assuming that the virus gets onto the pc in the frirst place. A better test would be to simulate from browser to post-instilation. Web browsers in themselves do have protection as well. In the 11 years i have been using common sense©️ and windows security, I have never had an infection.

    • @cybernews

      Yes, we typically conduct malware tests with real-time protection turned off to evaluate worst-case scenarios. However, we are now working on extensive tests both with and without real-time protection to see the difference in effectiveness. Stay tuned for those results!
