Norton Antivirus 2011 18.1.0.37
Protection of your computer against the thousands of threats that arise every day on the Internet is an increasingly complicated task, requiring special tools and behaviors. To assist us in this battle, we have available a series of tools such as Antivirus, Antispyware and Firewalls.
Norton Antivirus 2011 offers new technologies for the detection of threats on the computer, eliminating the known performance problems found in previous versions. Besides seeking viruses and other pests, Norton Antivirus 2011 also analyzes the reliability of files. A very welcome feature which displays level of reliability of each installed program, an additional safeguard to ensure that we do not have a modified version of applications by third parties. This behavior avoids unnecessary scans and increases system security and other applications. The new Application Performance Analysis detects suspicious behavior from the excessive use of memory and processing.
Norton Antivirus also has to analyze the misuse of system resources that, besides causing slowdowns, used to indicate the existence of infection. Making it a complete security suite, we can analyze the level of network security, especially useful for wireless networks. It is worth noting that Norton Antivirus 2011 is lighter as compared to previous versions, but there is no way to run it on computers with less than 1 GB of RAM. During our test, we noticed that the RAM used is below 20 MB, but when it comes to a complete scan, Norton Antivirus 2011 came to be used almost 300 MB of RAM. The processor is idle at times, but in certain activities, the application can use 100% CPU, a serious problem.
Despite all the drawbacks, Norton Antivirus is still an option that should be considered, since the number of detection of pests is a major factor of Symantec.
