Norton Antivirus Corporate Office

Norton Antivirus was founded in 1990 by Peter Norton. The company manufactures anti-virus and malware software to protect retail users.

Symantec acquired the company in late 1990. Peter Norton and his company developed various DOS utilities including Norton Utilities, which did not include antivirus features. Symantec continued the development of acquired technologies.

Norton has been criticized over the years for being notoriously difficult to uninstall. The software frequently was bundled with other products on new computers and all attempts to completely uninstall the software are frequently unsuccessful.

Users have also been scammed by those posing as Norton employees.

Consumers have also complained that Norton itself has tried to scam them, insisting on payment to repair infected systems that were not actually infected
