However, I was proven wrong with Norton Internet Security 2011. Right from the moment I click &#8220;Agree &amp; Install&#8221; until activation, it took less than 1 minute!! The installation screen is also every clean and straightforward. For the speed of installation, I give 5 stars out of 5!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/norton_install.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2970 aligncenter\" title=\"norton_install\" src=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/norton_install.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"523\" height=\"347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/norton_install.jpg 550w, https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/norton_install-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 523px) 100vw, 523px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">The New Interface<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Norton Internet Security 2011 new interface looks very cool and user-friendly. The thing that caught my attention is the Norton Protection Map, which provides up-to-the minute information about the newest threats Norton has identified and is protecting against around the globe. It looks like one of those cool apps you see on C.S.I. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen_protection.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2972 aligncenter\" title=\"screen_protection\" src=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen_protection.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"507\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen_protection.jpg 630w, https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen_protection-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 507px) 100vw, 507px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2971 aligncenter\" title=\"screen02\" src=\"http:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen02.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"503\" height=\"136\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen02.jpg 547w, https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/screen02-300x81.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 503px) 100vw, 503px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Plus, users can get easy one-click access to important data from web-based Norton services including: Norton Online Backup, Norton Online Family and Norton Safe Web.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">The Performance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I ran several tests of my own using the Norton Internet Security 2011. The first test I did was to let it scan around 50 phishing sites including those for Malaysian major banks. It managed to detect all, which another two antivirus software that I installed failed to match. Additionally, the Norton Safe Web toolbar,  installed in Internet Explorer and Firefox, watches for dangerous sites  of all kinds. It marks up search results in Google, Yahoo! and Bing with  green, yellow or red icons. A handy tool to watch out for malware websites.<\/p>\n<p>The scanning process of virus is also very fast and accurate. Most importantly, it doesn&#8217;t consume too much RAM to complete its task. Allowing the computer system to run smoothly. The good thing is Norton&#8217;s application scan also runs during idle time, which is to identify software in your PC which is marked as &#8220;good&#8221;, so that it doesn&#8217;t need to be scanned frequently.<\/p>\n<p>As a whole, I am\u00a0 impressed with Norton Internet Security 2011! Not only for its superb speed but also excellent performance. If you&#8217;re looking for a suite to protect yourself from cyber threats, then this is a must-have!<\/p>\n<p>Of course this is just a small test.
