I Plan to install Vista Ultimate. I had the Premier edition. However I found a Norton Vista Upgrade scanner on their website that searches for compatablity with Vista, and ran it.
Found that confusing tto, as when you install it upgrades from , so the former should no longer exist. So how come it finds both? Anyway it tells me my alternative is Norton System Works already a conflict with their store page that tells you to use Norton Internet Security instead because System Works is not for Vista? I click Purchase and it downloads the System Works standard edition. Durring the istallation it removes my Norton Goback and does not replace it, even though according to the specs on the store page it's part of the standard version.
Also confusing is tha following the installation it asks for a product key or if I want to use as a 15 day trial?
However When I originally clicked purchase after the scann told me I needed the upgrade from it never asked for credit card info, it imediately simply downloaded the program. So, do I need to buy this thing or can I use my Product Key From the version and treat this as an update? If you need a Vista-compatible Norton product, please select from the list below.
