I use the Symantec NSW 2003 and have really utilized it.
I use the GoBack, and it has gotten me out of some
problems nicely .. those that system restore sometimes
can't revert back to.
You mentioned the "ghost" on your version. Mine did not
come with that feature. Was it later added in? The
antivirus is good, although they usually only do their
updating once weekly on Wednesdays .. sign up for
Microsoft alert emails to stay on top of newer worms, etc.
Do you know how I can add the ghost to my version?
Thanks
