Can this software be used alone if you have Norton 360 running in the background?

Yes you can as long as you don't use antivirus and anti malware modules that are in fix it

Yes - that is how I am using it - I love the little bugger - however if what you are working on needs security - this is not the answer. Hope this helps.

Billp studios produces Winpatrol. Many people like it, some don't. It can protect you from registry changes attempted by malware, but it also can pop up and bug you about programs that are legitimate. It is not an anti virus program though. If you really want good protection and utilities that keep things working well. Buy Norton anti virus and Norton Utilities. They are separate programs. I avoid the other Norton products, like their norton 360 etc. as they don't do as good a job and are too complicated.

I'm not positive, since I use Windows 7. If Windows 8 has anti-virus protection, and I think it does, it would be called Microsoft Security Essentials. If it's installed, it MUST be removed before installing Norton Internet Security. To do so, go to the Control Panel. Then click on Add/Remove Programs and uninstall Microsoft Security Essentials. Once done, immediately install Norton Internet Security. Hope this helps. Tony

The migration software comes free even with the bare drive unit. Just go to www.samsung.com/samsungssd for the latest data migration tool, do not use Norton, it is bad.While doing the migration, don't work on the laptop so you wouldn't be fighting with the tool for access to the files.

yes, you can buy from norton and they will give you the key, just click renew on your old norton 360. get it cheaper thru amazon

Mr. Fisher Let the Norton 360 expire, and please do not renew from Norton because you will be paying higher price. Also, Norton 360 allows you to backup data in the server: a service you are paying and perhaps will never use since the space provided is not big enough. I remove 360 and bought Norton Antivirus instead from Amazon and it only cost me $25.00 for 3pcs. To answer your question, why give them your money early? Don't purchase now!

Yes it does have that feature, I have been using it since I got Norton earlier today

You can install and run on one computer at a time. License issues. Need to get separate software to run on another computer.

Norton has really gone down hill over the years and 360 consistently makes your computer slower. Ditch and come over to eset antivirus, it's light weight and will catch that adware virus you're suffering from.

No extra software that really is important. Norton antivirus comes with it but it is a limited time free. Everything in the specs for hardware.

Thank you Robert. If I could bother you for more questions. I am not very computer savy. I am looking to download my Norton 360 that I have a disk for already, onto my Acer Aspire One AO722-BZ454 11.6" Notebook. So I also need to make a backup. Will this devise do this also? Also not something I am looking to do right now but also wondering if I would be able to watch DVDs, listen to cds, download cds, listen to cds I have made myself, and burn DVDs? Thank you for your time. My main purpose is to download my Norton and to make backup disk with it.

I would ask Bitdefender. It could be that you would lose the multi-computer capability if you did down load to a USB drive.

The NIS may not be the reason your computer is running slow. 360 has extra features like cloud backup for added data safety and PC tune up which may or may not solve your problem. I am sure you can purchase the 360 and add the time from the NIS to your account but possibly not. All you can do is ask a Symantec technician.

Actually you can install the software on your laptop and your desktop as long as you only use one at a time

Nope, I had no issues and I had a bunch of other programs running (MS office, etc) at the same time. It depends on your internet connection more.

Don't know for certain, but Noron would be my last choice for security. Get AVG, Avast, or any of a dozen others that are far superior to Norton and McAfee.
