Windows 7: Security Providers

 

As per my last post, Norton Anti-virus that came with my ISP (Rogers) did not make the upgrade to Windows 7 Beta.  When opening the application, it stated that it required to be reactivated.  When running the activation, it complained that it was not a supported OS.  Even worse, i was not able to uninstall it.  However, i did find this link:

Windows 7: Security Providers

Thankfully, Norton provides a FREE trial till March 27, 2009 of their Norton Anti-virus software (Norton 360) for Windows 7 (along with AVG and Kaspersky Lab).  Norton 360 found my broken previous Norton install and removed it for me before installing itself.

The new version is so much cleaner and simpler that what i had before.  Nice work Norton.
