Does NIS 2007 Contain Ad Blocking Software (which crashes my JS pages)

[peterinwa]

My website crashes when a user has NIS with ad blocking turned on. Always has.

My pages are created with JavaScript, and somehow NIS doesn't like it. They insert JS code right into my page -- you can see it with View/Source -- and the pages crash. How rude!

I used to use NIS and figured out how to detect this and give my users a message about turning off the ad blocking software if they wanted to use my site. But NIS changed, and my message no longer appears.

I just purchased NIS 2007 to try to get the message to appear again. However, the box says NOTHING on the outside about ad blocking software. Nor does the Symantec site in it's list of NIS 2007 features.

Before I open it (and can't return it) I'd love for someone to tell me if they know if NIS 2007 contains ad blocking software.

Thanks, Peter

From the Symantec site I understand that the standard package does not contain ad blocking software. But an add-on, the Norton Internet Security Add-on pack, can be downloaded for free. One of its features is ad blocking: "Keeps banner ads and pop-up and pop-under windows off the screen for faster Web browsing."

Thanks, I downloaded it.
