I used 2002 and 2003 with no problems and have been happy with it. Today I went out a purchased 2004 and it all began with registration problems. I ended up having to manually do it over the phone to get it activated.

After installation, everything seemed fine until I tried running the program. It won't open at all. I defragged, uninstalled and re-installed numerous times, but it wouldn't run at all. I even tried running live update and keep getting error messages. I do some googling and find out that Norton Systemworks 2004 has some really bad reviews for this reason as well as support being almost non-existant.

Does anyone currently use this software and either have no problems or had something similar and know of a workaround? In any event, I hope this helps for those of you considering purchasing this - so far $80 has gotten me nothing yet...and I've spent more than 4 hours trying to get this thing to work.

Norton is WORTHLESS :rant:

I originally had it installed in my computer and had all kinds of goofy problems with my computer , which seemed to say "I HAVE A VIRUS".

I dumped the Norton GARBAGE , installed Mcafee and 8 !!!!! viruses where in the computer , as well as several unwanted Adware programs.

Norton found NONE of these , granted it isn't designed to pick out unwanted Adware, BUT 8 UNFOUND VIRUSES ??????????

JUST SAY NO TO Norton. :rant:

I have had the same problems with my gaming system after I installed Norton. My gaming system keeps shutting down and having errors. You say you installed Mcafee and had nooooo problems?
