Story: Does anybody like Norton AntiVirus?

If the product 'Norton Internet Security' stinks, (and a simple search indicates that, for many users, it does) then their technical support is a total cesspit.

Here in the UK they quote £18 per query for telephone support but nowhere on their site can you find a telephone number to call.

A search on 'yell.com' revealed 01628 592222 as their UK base and one call, plus the usual number of 'options' revealed 0207 616 5813 as the number for Technical Support.

I rang and guess what they asked for: My product code, the nature of my problem? No, for me to ensure that I had my credit card with me before progressing!

Surprisingly, I rang-off at that point.

Oh, and the good news is that reading of other folks problems when they have attempted to remove this software sends shivers down the spine!
