Listen man, I don't how come you are posting this stuff, and why but lets have some objective reasoned comments. Just saying don't install Norton AntiVirus beta is purely scaremongering. Details please, might add that seeing as you seem to be having so many problems with your system, which, by the way, I am not having with mine, I would look to your setup. Simply not enough to post up comments like that without details as to your system....

Not sure what the hell he's on about
 
I install Norton 2001 Beta, and it works fine - admittedly it doesn't like uninstalling, and trying to install Norton 2000 after a supposed uninstall of Norton 2001 leaves Norton 2000 looking like Norton 2001 (try it, you'll see what I mean)
 
In any event, I'm waiting for Win2k SP1, then I'm reformatting and going back to Norton 2000

That's why it's *BETA*, so Synmantec can kill bugs like that...
