[WEB4LIB] [Fwd: Norton expired - case #33533]

[Christopher Adams]

It is not just software provided by the Gates Foundation. The version of
Norton Anti-virus (2000 in our case) that comes with many new computers
is what they call a "complimentary version". It works for one year and
then you have to purchase subscriptions in order to continue getting the
Live Updates. You can uninstall it and install it again. It will then be
good for another month or two.
