Dual boot licencing

Hi All,

I have a dual booting system of XP Pro and Vista Ultimate 64 Edition. I'm intending to get a copy of Norton Internet Security 2008 and need to know if I can install it on both os or will i need to get 2 copies? :confused:

Thanks in advance

René

I think Norton comes with a three PC license anyway
(correct me if I am wrong)

Thanks for the quick response, but this include the OEM version?

How can you know enough to dual boot and not know that Norton Internet Security type packages are horrible excuses for software?

I guess a little knowledge is a dangerous thing

What would you recommend?

No.

Just use avast anti virus in one would be my recommendation.

@Caged:

Norton 2008 is much better than the previous versions.

try Comodo firewall and Spybot search and destroy.

Sorry I should have mentioned that.
