No surprise there.
Symantec has always produced shitty software.

Yeah, but I knew it twenty years ago.
Symantec bought the company I had worked for, and their first move was to destroy the QA department.

I first used Symantec about 1987, and it sucked then. When they bought Peter Norton in 1990 and ruined it I stopped using anything under their name.
