![]() One thing I like about this is the Norton Backup, which when combined with the 2GB Online Secure Storage gives you a brilliant remote backup storage solution. The Antivirus and Firewall system is the same as that in it's siblings and works exactly the same so I won't go over old ground here on those. Once I had signed in there I notice a link over on the right hand side for the Product Update Centre, once I click on that all became clear, there was a nice little note about Windows 7 compatibilty and a link to download a version checker which when downloaded and run will check what version you have and then allow you to download an update that will take you from Norton 360 v3.0 to Norton 360 v3.5 which is fully Windows 7 compatible in fact it supports both 32-bit and 64-bit versions happily.

Then there was the unfortunate period whre while their products still did the job, they unfortunately used a bit more system resources than most people wanted. For a long time Nortons was considered to be one of the best in PC Security and System Tools.
