Re: What does installing a crypto miner have to do with computer security?

It's been a long time since I ran into a PC with Norton on it. But was/is Norton the one you have to sign into your online account to find out if your antivirus is about to expire?

I really found that annoying when I'm fixing a PC and can't tell the user they need to upgrade their antivirus soon. I never recommended Norton because of that.
