  • ApolytonPLUS v Norton Internet Security

    Has anyone established whether subscribing to ApolytonPLUS eliminates the known Norton bug (where clicking external links from Poly threads won't work unless the url is manually entered)?

    Yes it does.
    Links are just links, they don't go through that ad page at all.

      That is, assuming normal links (such as those on other sites) work properly.

          I suggest you to change to McAfee: in my experience is more secure (my work is PCs Technical Service and, obviously, clean viruses) and the firewall is less "problematic".

            ApolytonPlus eliminates the ad redirect script with the external links, presumably this is what your Norton was conflicting with. Maybe something that prevents browser takeovers by some scripts.
