Norton Antivirus 2010 defends your PC against viruses, spyware, bots, worms, and other malware without slowing things down or getting in your way. For faster, less frequent scans, intelligence-driven technology identifies and targets only files at risk. Vulnerability protection prevents threats from exploiting security holes in the PC software. Pulse Updates that occur every 5-15 minutes and real-time online security checks help ensure continuous, up-to-the-minute protection against the latest threats.

New features included. Proactive Protection which automatically removes threats and stops new attacks before they can do damage, Download Insight, File Insight, and Threat Insight gives you greater insight into downloaded applications and files by telling you where they came from and how they impact your PC's resources and performance.
