Hello

I currently run Norton Internet Security 2003 (Antivirus and Firewall).
I've just purchased Norton Internet 2006.

Do I need to unistall 2003, or will 2006 sort it for me when I load it.

I run Windows XP

Regards
John Hellingsworth

nis 2006 is a very unreliable piece of bloatware, which will probably not
work, and will slow your computer down.

The same can be said about XP.

Poor analogy; there are several AV products to choose from and many are
superior to Norton with considerably less drain on resources (Norton
corporation version excluded).

Maybe, but it is still the best all round home operating system ever
released. Norton is bloatware *and* useless.
