Has anybody else gotten this lately? I am trying to figure out how it got on my computer. The only installations I have done lately is updates, and I know java just loves to trick you into installing this. Maybe it was Nvidia? I just updated my drivers last week. I have never had a reason to double check Nvidia I suppose now I will have to.
It is bad enough to fight against all the malware out there than have to deal with skanky practices to put nominally, supposedly useful software that I don’t want on my pc. Which in my book makes Norton malware.
I am already running the scans from my preferred anti virus anti malware to make sure I didn’t pick up some unknown virus playing as Norton.
I probably should have put this in the pit, lame as it is, or IMHO. I was wondering if they had a new sneakier way of doing it so I could be a little more careful in the future. Then I could blame them instead of myself.
Sorry for wasting your time.
Doesn’t the built-in uninstaller tell you what day and time it was installed on? If not, check the “created” or “last modified” dates on the folder norton is installed in.
You gotta watch extra carefully now-a-days. I had something install the other day where I was given a choice of standard or custom install. Selecting custom install allowed me to uncheck several pieces of spam (at least to me).
