Virus busters send hackers packing

Symantec has released Norton Internet Security 2001 Version 3.0, a personal firewall and security system.

The suite contains Norton Personal Firewall for maximum defence against hackers. This features Intrusion Protection, which detects port scans and Trojan horse access attempts, then blocks access while alerting the user.

In addition, the suite can put your computer into stealth mode, hiding it from hackers.

The acclaimed Norton AntiVirus, which guards your system against viruses, worms and many other types of harmful code floating around the internet, is also featured and contains new script-blocking technology.

Other parts of the package include Privacy Control to stop private data being sent online without the user's permission, and an Ad Blocking facility to delete all online banner advertising, resulting in quicker page download speeds.

The Family Edition also includes parental controls for limiting children's access to objectionable sites and costs £49.99. The normal edition costs £39.99 (both prices include VAT).
