I was browsing through the Symantec website and found that Norton Internet Security 2007 is now available for download through their open beta test. If any of you have tried it, please feel free to let me know how bloated it is over last years and the years before that. I’m sure there are some really useful features that they’ve implemented over the past year.
Here are the system requirements:

A friend of mine on message board forum installed it on one of his machines. Let’s just say that it’s even more bloated than 2006. I’ll be installing it on to one of my test machines on Monday. I’ll report back with what I find.
