What about Norton? Sep 20, 2003

I've just noticed that Lavasoft Ad-Aware is free only for non-commercial use. Do you know if Internet security packages by Symantec, McAfee etc. also have an anti-spyware function? Thanks

This will take you to the McAfee store, where you can ge answers to your questions. There is one that can protect exploitation of your private information, but apparently there is not one specifically for spyware. Norton also shows no specific spyware removal program. ▲ Collapse
