| 118927 | 2003-02-07 02:29:00 | Hi Team I've had a few emails lately offering Norton SystemWorks for US$39.99. Does anybody know if THIS (antivirus-web.com) is a kosher deal? They don't supply retail packaging so I assume it is just the CDs. All up it would probably cost around NZ$100 but I don't know how that compares to the local price. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 118930 | 2003-02-07 03:01:00 | Sometimes, those deals are OK. More times than not, but sounds to good to be true IS too good to be true. |

| 118931 | 2003-02-07 03:12:00 | Could also be spam mail as I was late last year and again last couple of weeks had several offering Nortons at bargin basement prices, out of interest started checking the header information and some came via australia and a hotmail address. Of course what you are seeing in your inbox could be different from the ones I had. |

| 118932 | 2003-02-07 03:18:00 | I wouldn't buy software from an outfit like that. $229.95 for System Works Professional 2003 @ DSE (http://www.dse.co.nz) |

| 118933 | 2003-02-07 03:20:00 | Email source was marlon . blanco2fg7@lycos . com . I was a bit septic myself, that's why I asked in case somebody had tried it on the previous run of offers last year . However, if you look at the website and ordering info, it's a bit too professional-looking for your average scam . IMHO the degree of reliability is usually inversely proportional to the number of spelling and grammatical errors . Cheers Billy 8-{) :D |

| 118935 | 2003-02-07 04:23:00 | Billy, You might find this link ( . getspecific . com/Region/USA/States/MD . htm" target="_blank">www . getspecific . com) interesting . The Nortons deal link you gave had this address on it: M . I . M . Inc . - PO Box 19803 - Baltimore, MD 21225 Doing a google search on "PO Box 19803" Baltimore provides some interesting links . I would give this one a wide berth . |
