Default Re: OT: What Should I Do?

Norton 2003 isn't worth jack today!

Don't renew. Norton 2003 cannot detect packed malware (and no I'm not talking about archives, such as zip, rar, etc, packing is completely different), and also does not scan inside rar files. The definitions are there, but Norton 2003's engine is unable to read them. Don't hold your breath for an engine update with your subscription--Norton is one of very few anti-virus vendors who don't provide engine updates with a subscription. You have to buy new versions to get the latest scanning engine. Engine updates are not just for speed!

To stick with 2003 would be outright stupid.
