How to Move Symantec Protection to a New Computer
Symantec is a company that sells Norton antivirus software for computers. There are several versions of Norton, but the basic structure protects a PC or Mac against viruses and hackers. Anyone can pay and download the program from the main website or purchase the CD-ROM in stores. When you purchase Norton, you will get a unique "Product Key" code that you must enter to activate the software. Users are allowed to download the same program onto three different computers using the same Product Key.
