    BT McAfee to Norton Problems?

    Anybody else having problems transferring from McAfee to Norton on the BT free security programmes. My desktop worked fine but the Samsung tablet and phones are not playing ball!

    It seems that I am not on my own:-

    More bean counters running BT it seems. They are also reducing the number of security users on the account from 15 to 2 !!!! If you have a dektop, laptop and a coulpe of phones, tablets etc., you have to buy more licenses! Out of order BT.

    Is this stuff really necessary? If free for me I still wouldn’t bother.

    I agree. The built in security in Windows is very good. MacAfee and Norton are almost as bad as some viruses. I have to use MacAfee for work, and it is a CPU hog.

    Also if you have them both at the same time they don’t like it (each other)

    Windows Defender and Malwarebytes are all you need
    Norton plasters itself all over the operating system and affects the performance. I wouldn't use it.
