    Ambiguous Wording on NE Product Description

    I'm looking at buying the new Norton Internet Security Suite.  Newegg has it at a good price, but the wording of the listing makes it difficult to tell if it includes 1 or 3 user licenses.  Can someone help me out?

    Thanks,

    It's for 3 PCs... Norton is junk anyway, why would you pay money for it?  Heck, I know people who would pay money for help getting it off their PC..  Better off with AVG Free or get something better like Avast!

    I never recommend people run RAID-5 with onboard chipsets.

    From personal experience, AVG and Avast both do nothing, and they constantly bother the user.  Avast uses FULL-SCREEN pop-ups advertising the full version every hour on the hour.  If you have a recommendation of another suite outside of the two above, I'd be happy to hear it.

    Not a big fan of Free AV although I tried some of them in the past years.

    Norton does very good job. So does Kasperskey.

    Look at the AVcomparatives and then do eanie-meanie-mainie-moe.
