This Must be a JOKE!

Norton can't be serious. This is truly the worst piece of software ever perpetrated upon mankind.
The most incredibly obvious pieces of spam are coming into my inbox by the hundreds, marked "Norton Anti Spam", even with my settings on the highest possible sensitivity.
The first and only piece of mail they marked as Spam was of course from a desired sender.
This is so bad I am amazed.
I only wish there was a rated lower than one. This is definitely in the sub zero regions.

Very Unsatisfactory results?

I found this software to be VERY dissapointing. It just does not work very well? I use Incredimail as my e-mail provider, and find Norton AntiSpam to be less than helpful. It is very good at always mentioning Norton AntiSpam on my spam e-mails, problem is it doesn't block most of them? So what is the use of having an AntiSpam program? I find this product to be a total waste of money. Now I am really wondering about the quality of other Symantec Norton products in general?

As a user of this and other Norton products and as a tech-support professional, I must tell you that the bad reviews are true. I used to be a big fan of Norton products until recently.

Junk - Symantec should be ashamed
Rating:
Search for Amazon item number 10099566 to see an overwhelming number of bad reviews of Norton AntiSpam 2004. They didn't improve the product much in the 2005 version. It is really disgusting that Symantec has leveraged the Norton brand, formerly known for quality, with the cynical money grab that is Norton AntiSpam. Absolute junk software, with comically bad support. I hope to see a class action lawsuit against Symantec for selling this product that they certainly know is defective in a myriad of ways.

I purchased the Norton Internet Security with the Norton Antispam hoping that it would eventualy solve my ever increasing amounts of spam in my inbox
With my daily routine of clicking this is spam - my Norton Antispam folder contained 8000 spam emails in 6 months. I checked my statistics and the logs to my astonishment - Norton Antispam did not scan 1 single email.
Reporting this 3 times during 1-2 hour live chat sessions (with their customer support) only proved to me that this product is as bad as all the reviews state. The "techs" provided me the same advice and fixs over and over again which, were all tried and failed. The phone support was equally as fustrating as the chat support and Symantec's outsourced technical support technicians seem to have a single cheat sheet page of solutions that never resolved any of my concerns.
I will do some additional research and choose anything but a symantec products. They were good in the past but failed miserably with this version. They get an D- for the software and a BIG F for customer support. Buyers Beware!!
