thanks. I'm guessing the previous executable does not need to be installed?

thanx

does it still have a time limit on it?

Yes, don't waste your time with this beta release. It stops after 30 days adn then you don't have any anti-virus protection. Plus there is nothing great about Norton Anti-virus 2003 compaired to 2002.

Actually this post belongs in the beta software area.

correct me if im wrong but ive just installed this version and its allowed 1year subscription

i installed the "beta" version, then when i tried to install this version it asked me to remove the old version and has now allowed 1 year free?!?

subscription ends 8/8/2003

?!?

I installed the 2003 Beta that's been around awhile and it appeared to give me 1 year, but after a week or 2 I started getting a message that it had a limited life (forget the actual message), so immediately uninstalled and put 2002 back in.

Another thing. The Beta 2003 I tried worked fine on a Dell, but wouldn't work correctly on a Toshiba Satelite 5100. Wouldn't update on Norton's web site.

--Not broken, why fix it? :)

true ;) :lol: -_-

Because a lot of people want to have the latest release of their software.

Me too, I always opt for the "latest", but it seems to me that using beta versions for virus checking or firewalling is not a good idea unless on a specific test paritiion. but, point taken MinnesotaKid

Well the first beta ran fine for me. But now it expired and same with the second one. :(

Oh well 2002 pro is good enough for me.

cya,
will

i had to uninstall the NAV2002 in order to work the NAV2003 correctly. my build is 9.00.35 and it still works fine. however, in the main menu it says: "Externel Test Build". :o

i installed nav2003, which later displayed as an external test build. as one betaone member said, i had to uninstall previous versions of nav in order to install nav2003 without errors. but today however, after updating a nav component i selected to restart later. after restarting it started giving the same error message over and over which asked to restart the computer.

Final is released now topic closed
