    Hi,

    Has anyone been able to install Norton Internet Security 2009 or 2010 onto a Parallels Windows 7 virtual machine?

    I can't get the install program to run - just disappears.

    I spoke with Norton's livechat and had the following response:

    [21:18] [email protected] says: We are not able to update the Norton program.
    [21:20] Helen Page says: What do you mean?
    [21:23] Helen Page says: all done
    [21:24] [email protected] says: I belive the program is not compatible on the virtual machine due to MAC OS.
    [21:25] Helen Page says: the virtual machine is completely independent of the mac os - 99% of windows software will run - are you saying it is not compatible with the Parallels application then?
    [21:25] [email protected] says: Let me confirm.
    [21:27] [email protected] says: Norton 2010 is not compatible with the virtual machine and we cannot update on the computer.

    If this is the case then does anyone have any recommendations for other firewall/anti-virus software?

    Thanks
