Vista for the win!
Plus I don't use Symantec.

Pretty invasive. And I'm sure permissible under the license agreement.
Thanks for the heads up to not buy any more symantec.

At least they told you they did it! I wouldn't have!
Invasive, ya. But still. If I knew of a program that helped people steal my stuff, I'd probably fuck with it too.

Well, the keygens it removed were for Adobe programs. The one I linked was what I found when googling.
The program I use is Symantec Endpoint Protection, which says it protects against "viruss, trojan horses, and spyware." (Directly from the program as it's running).
keygens are none of those.

No. Viruses, trojan horses, and spyware have clear definitions.
