If you have the desire to try out the next edition of the popular Norton AntiVirus software then here is your chance. Symantec is offering users the chance to download and install a test (beta) version of Norton AntiVirus 2008.

It also includes the new SONAR (Symantec Online Network for Advanced Response) technology which provides behavior based protection that can detect emerging spyware and viruses even before traditional signature based definitions are available.

- 300 MHz or faster processor
- 256MB of RAM
- 300MB of available hard disk space
