I am thinking about installing Norton 2000 System Works on my freshly formatted Hard Drive. Do any of you have an opinion either way on whether or not it is a usefull program suite? Is there something else I should use?

Love it. All I ever use of Nortons Utilities is system check and speed disk.

If you already have it, then it's definitely worth installing. I've been running it on my system for a year now and have used quite a few of the different apps. Albeit there are also quite a few that I've never touched (don't much like crash guard), but it's nice having them just in case I ever get the urge.

Don't tell me you *ahem* bought Norton Utilities for just Speed Disk.

works well on my system & like Renob said, the speed disk utility blows windows defragmenter away for speed!

Actually, I got it for $19.95, thru some web ad that spammed my email about a year ago.

Thus far I've made use of AV (by far my favorite part of the software suite), Speed disk, Norton Diagnostics (helped me identify one of my RAM sticks as being defunct), System Information (great when you have programs running in task manager but can't quite figure out what they are from the name alone), and a few of the registry/program trackers (though this always seems to somehow end up in an error, and so I've avoided it as of late).

I got mine as a birthday present back in Jan. of 2000, and would say that the first two programs mentioned above (anti-virus and speed disk) make the entire package worth it. You could get AV by itself if you'd like, though when the entire system works costs only around $10 more, it's not going to set you back a great deal to splurge.

I like Norton Utilities.. Speed Disk is the best part. If ya install it I would disble all the Start with windows options except the Anti-Virus, everything else is a major system hog..

I have Norton System Works 2001 (includes Norton Utilities, Norton Anti-Virus, etc.) and Norton Personal Firewall 2001 and the products work great. Just be sure to disable some features on startup or you will find your 256MB of new memory all used up.

I use Norton Disk Doctor every day, but if it reports an error, especially one about the partition, I suggest you leave the error uncorrected until you reboot. Because a few times with me Norton reported that a partition was bad even though it seemed normal, and Norton's repair eliminated the partition (restored after undo).
