Help needed BT Broadband Norton AV/Firewall

Options
I've just connected the BT Homehub and all working fine with Vista.

BUT where oh where is the Norton AV/Firewall software download?

I'm misssing something obvious here!

Need to install it VERY soon.

    Your probably better off without it, Vista has its own firewall, and the BT hub should also have a hardware firewall.
    For antivirus AVG is at least as good as Norton and better its free.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    Thanks for that.

    In desperation as a quick temporary measure I loaded the McAfee software which came with the computer - just a 30 day licence.

    Then I think I will install AVG again - I had it with XP and was quite happy with it.

    I also had Zonealarm Firewall. Vista compatible now I think.

    Many thanks.
