Duration of ownership:
Strengths: It's "Norton"
Weaknesses: Not particularly useful, and made my system run very s-l-o-o-o-o-w
Overall Evaluation: It sounded good in the ad. I downloaded this onto my Mac (OS 10.4) and in setting it up began to wonder what it was going to do for me that common sense wouldn't. It "keeps my sensitive information from being sent out" for instance. Hey, I'm the one sending it.And then I began to notice that my system had slowed considerably. The Mac "mail" utility took forever to send an outgoing mail, and it finally dawned that maybe Norton Confidential was reviewing everything I sent before letting it go.Long story short, I uninstalled the utility, things are running fast, and I'm happy. I like the Norton Antivirus for the Mac, but this one's a bust.

Strengths: password management if it works properly
Weaknesses: feels like it is still in beta test
Overall Evaluation: I did not expect too much from it for antispyware but I do want Norton confidential could help me in password management. Its malfunction and its impact on the browser speed really make it like a malware. Stay away from it until Symantec takes this product seriously.
