On the other hand, my Mozilla Suite, Firefox 1.0.whatever, and 
Thunderbird 1.0.whatever are all up to date.  As is my Norton 
Sytemworks. Zero problems.

I have a strong undocumented suspicion that many of these problems would 
turn out to be people using old un-updated versions of Norton products. 
  Ther is no earthly reason to expect a one or two-year old version of 
products in this category to not have problems.  I understand that many 
people may be on a budget and click past those update notices when they 
see it will cost them.  But this is the state of affairs in computing 
today.  It's up to the individual but when you avoid updates to save a 
few bucks you surf at your own peril.

An aside:  If you shop around you can find Norton (and almost any) 
products at retail with rebates that might actually cost you less than 
if you do an upgrade through Symantec.  I've done it several times, 
getting Norton System Works the last time (version 2005) for about $40. 
  If you want the protection on an ongoing basis you need to understand 
that the costs are ongoing as well.
