WARNING to Norton AV SONAR users
Posted: Thu Jul 21, 2011 11:50 am
WARNING: if you use Norton AV and were duped into the 'free trial' of SONAR check this out and search the web.
You will find the 'brilliant folks' at Norton are wreaking havoc on many small software vendors.
Essentially the program wipes out software it doesn't know about.
your program simply doesn't work, no warning.
SO how does Norton find out about the software?
Well you PAY Norton to let them know you exist.
Great business model!
Please note we WILL NOT support any issues you may have with SONAR.
Disable it, delete it, ...send the 'Big Brother' software back to Norton and support other non-predatory anti-virus software vendors.
