Norton 360 Version 4.0 All-In-One Security

Sometimes I think that I take my computer for granted. It works so hard to keep me happy and the least I can do is give it all the support and protection it needs. I like to think of my computer as a vehicle that allows me to take trips virtually anywhere. Since it is a vehicle, it needs to be updated and taken care of just like my car. You wouldn't drive your car for a year without giving it an oil change, so you can't expect your computer to preform at it's optimum level if you aren't giving it the proper tools.

Identity theft is a threat that can not only ruin your credit, it can ruin your life. Protecting yourself is the best way to thwart a thief. If they are having a hard time getting your information, it's more likely that they will move on to some other unsuspecting soul and leave yours alone. I do all that I can to keep my information secure and I hope you do the same.

The latest version of Norton 360 Version 4.0 will be released in the middle of this month and it offers the following:

PC Security

Transaction Security

Backup and Restore

PC Tuneup

Here is some important information that I found on Norton's website here:

In this release Norton 360 Version 4.0 gains a new model of security, codenamed Quorum, that improves detection of new malware and advances far beyond traditional signature and behavior-based detection. It also offers an enhanced Norton Safe Web, a very effective new antispam engine, and our new SONAR 2 technology to stop new and unknown threats.
Backing up and restoring files is easier and more efficient in Norton 360 Version 4.0. New web-based access to backup files enables anytime, anywhere file downloads, while new keyword search capabilities let users quickly locate the files they want to restore.
