| Norton 360 Phishing Filter So Slow!! Basically my problem is that since i have installed Norton 360, browsing the internet is really slow. When clicking links on websites, i click it, and then there is a lag of about 5 seconds before the page begins to load!! I think this is something to do with the phishing filter in transaction security in N360. However if i disable the whole of transcation security, all of norton goes red with crosses everywhere. Not nice. Any ideas on how i can just disable the phishing filter, or what else i can do to solve the problem?? Any help will be muchly appreciated!! This is doing my head in!!! Thanks p.s. keep it simple! |

As a matter of fact, contrary to other comments you might read, I have been pretty satisfied (and surprised) at Norton 360's non-obtrusive and reliable operation. "Phishing Protection" is "on" and I don't see any noticeable delay when MSIE opens or switches web pages. Mind you, I am using a high-speed Internet connection (12 mbps/1 mbps) so maybe this has an impact (?) Unfortunately, I don't know if you can turn-off the "red" alert icon when you disable Phishing Protection. Why not simply live with the red alert icon? But then again, I also wonder if PP is really the root cause for the 5-second delay as it is not happening on my system? (subjective view, but hey, it's reality for me ;-) My system: CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-M59SLI-S5 w/nVIDIA nForce 590 SLI RAM: 2048 MB Video: BFG - NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT OC (w/512 MB DDR3) O/S: Microsoft Windows Vista Business AV/AS/FW: Symantec Norton 360 ______________________ The Traveller Oceanside, California |
