Yup just renewed and upgraded to Norton 2011. So far pretty sweet. Great new features and little bit of a change on the look. With new map feature. Very fast still. More options including the Online backup tab icon links right inside the main program dashboard. Better settings. Plus seems pretty fast and light weight still which is great. So yup real good.  Norton really stepped it up last 2 years for sure. You guy's using it yet ?? If not, what are you using at the moment ?? [doesnt have to be Norton to post, just mean in what overall] EDITED 9-29-10: Ok cool. Wow just found out/figured out. Adding some pics below. Norton does a Facebook scan now to for WebSafe. It does wall post scans for bad/unsafe posts links. Pretty sweet. Got to add it like a app though plus can do autoscans instead of doing it manually from inside the program to launch browser. Once you add it and you run the scan from the program it scans facebook then asks you if you want to set it & the facebook app to autoscan. Pretty cool feature. It's kind of like the web searches or Google where it shows the green or red icon if bad link or site. I'll add the pics below so you all can see it in action.

I never liked Norton, or McAfee, but I'm using Spyware Doctor 2010 With AntiVirus (I'll get 2011's editing next year)

I'm still skeptical on trying it as my past experiences using Norton. I might test it on a virtual machine first, and see how it is, but first I'm gonna checkout it's reviews.

As i just said... it's bad ass man. You know i know what im talking about and more then most reviews...lol. Not to mention i was the same way back not even a year ago. anyways the reviews are it rates #1 right now with best virus apps of the year and last year it did to. Even with PCmag or PC world and bunch of others.

I'm installing Windows 7 on a virtual machine right now, so I'll be testing it in a bit. I prefer Spyware Doctor myself never had any problems sense I got it.

The reviews seem pretty good, worked fine in the virtual machine with Windows 7 installed. Works a lot better then what I was expecting.

I don't know whether or not it's 2011 (it says version 4.2.0.1.2), but it is the full norton 360 security suite
