Story: Symantec's self serving warnings
Posted by: Bill Bates (Tuesday 22 March 2005, 9:54 PM)
Symantec is fearful of its slip from the top. MaAfee has been better for a long time. Trend Micro has taken over in the enterprise market. and AVG by Grisoft has made a huge surge as the "cool" consumer tool of choice.
Symantec's products have slowly become stale and irrelevant. Most of the time they do not even work as advertised.
Symantec needs to resort to scare tactics in order to drum up new business and try to be the first to expand in a "new" market segment.
Good luck. Your time is done...
