With levels of spam (unwanted, unsolicited email) rising dramatically, installing some kind of screening program to get rid of what you don't want is a great idea and thanks to Norton AntiSpam 2004 the process is clean, straightforward and much more successful than you could hope for.With the ability to set up lists of people you do want to receive e-mail from in addition to those you'd like to block, Norton AntiSpam 2004 provides multiple ways of getting rid of the rubbish. Every mail is tagged with an identifying text header to indicate that it's unwanted and then pushed into a subfolder of the inbox so you may delete it at your leisure--and it's very effective too.
In terms of its operation, it integrates smoothly with Outlook, Outlook Express and Eudora, nestling itself away in the program's menu system, ready for when you need it. On the surface it's a very simple program with few options, but this level of simplicity doesn't tell the whole story and anything that blocks 90% of incoming spam has to be a winner.
It's not all plain sailing though. Phone support can be quite expensive, leaving regular users to wade through Symantec's online support database to find answers to pressing questions; it can only handle POP3 mail accounts (no IMAP support at the moment) and it can slow down the operation of Outlook and Outlook Express. These niggles aside, anything that performs this effectively out of the box has to be worth the asking price.
For those who are heartily sick of body-part enlargement messages, requests for help from bankrupted foreign leaders and offers of cheap degrees from fake US universities, Norton AntiSpam 2004 provides a safe and simple way to lighten the e-mail load. --Chris Russell

Using anti-virus software isn't enough these days; you need to actively block off your PC from online security risks with a firewall. Norton Internet Security 2003 lets you do both, plus it blocks ads, filters spam and includes parental controls.Setting up a firewall can be complex but the Security Assistant wizard walks you through all the choices you need to make, and it automatically sets up PCs on a home network to work behind the firewall. The Program Scan looks for Internet-enabled software on your system so you can let all your Internet tools have access at once; you can add other software to the list as well. When a program you haven't specified tries to connect the Alert Assistant helps you decide whether to allow it, block it or tweak the settings; it checks both file names and checksums to make sure an application hasn't been tampered with and you get specific suggestions rather than generic tips.
Similarly it uses signatures and detects common techniques rather than just looking at file names to spot incoming attacks. If your PC is attacked, it will block the source address automatically for 30 minutes, and you can see where the attack is coming from. If you need to be completely secure you can block all traffic in and out. And you can easily see how you're protected and if there are any problems from the red and green indicators in the Status display.
If you share your PC, everyone will need anti-virus and firewall protection, but you can choose whether to turn on the ad and spam blocking tools, the privacy controls that protects private information and the parental controls for blocking particular Web sites, Usenet newsgroups and programs. Symantec categorises these so you can keep people away from gambling and job sites as well as adult sites, and you can add specific sites that you want blocked or allowed. It's no substitute for monitoring what children do on your PC but it's certainly a help. You can also configure the settings for privacy, blocking spam and pop-up and pop-under adverts.
Norton AntiVirus 2003 is one of the best anti-virus packages on the market; Norton Firewall is a powerful tool too, and Internet Security 2003 combines them with other useful tools, plus a foolproof setup that protects you without making what you do want to do online too difficult.--Mary Branscombe
