Question about Norton Internet Security

[sohaibrazzaq]

So i have got Norton Internet Security 2011 with 293 days of subscription remaining and i was thinking about upgrading to Norton 360 v4 with 1 year subscription.
Question is if i upgrade now, will my 293 days of subscription remaining will be wasted and get replaced by 1 year of 360 v4 or will they be added like 293+365 days of subscription for 360?
any replies are appreciated.

afaik the new license will take over. your subscription will be for the new product only. nis is a good product again finally i'd stick with it. n360 doesn't add any protection, only pc tools you could get elsewhere.

for a real answer to the subscription question call or email norton support, they are the only ones that can really answer that.

Yup i know calling the support is the best solution but i thought i will get a faster answer here, but if my 293 days subscription will get wasted then i ain't upgrading to 360 yet.

IMHO as was said above if you have 293 days left on NIS 2011 I'd run them out. Do you really need the features of N360? I always found that the backup was a nuisance. IOWs when customers computers come in with N360, it always shows errors since they never configure the backup function and the norton taskbar notifier shows red not green.
