Declan,

Do you have an argument raging about this yet...

If not then you should.  In one stupid move.. Norton is managing to
endanger the entire business model that provides for the existence
and development of

1) free online media
2) free online services such as email and
3) free online search engines

This is the most moronic thing I have seen in ages.
