I find it hard to believe that Wikipedia removes small time businesses from adding their businesses to this site but has no problems with bigger business like this one. I added my businesses to this site and was removed within minutes. The information I provided was historically accurate and simply explained the history of the owners and its evolution. Wikipedia seems to be a bit classist. By the way this company is nothing but a front for spyware. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.209.68.186 ( talk)
I don't know where he's getting that, but I had the program for a couple of years - antivirus and firewall. There was some difficulty with the update so I purged the Pc tool files and went with another system. All of the sudden, I could open video files that had never worked on my PC before. I could view You tube and the videos often attached to news sites. Pc tools had worked so well, that it disabled many of the capabilities of my computer and isp. -- Mcumpston ( talk) 20:42, 6 August 2008 (UTC) hjh —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.31.142.69 ( talk) 13:05, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
There should be documentation that the large majority of pc tools software including spyware remover do NOT let you actually use any of the programs actual features until you pay for them. The refuse to acknowledge this anywhere on their site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.152.42.172 ( talk) 18:17, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
I am expanding this to at least be a Start on Wikipedia. You can contribute too (not expressing anger)! - JC Talk to me My contributions 05:19, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
They are small enough to be merged. A possible immediate merge may be necessary. -- JC Talk to me My contributions 01:17, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
PC Tools was a company that provided the included Backup tool in Windows 3.1, it also sold other software such as Antivirus and System Utilities. The company was purchased by Norton in the 1990's and its competing products were discontinued. Norton provided a patch for Windows 95 so users who backed up data in Windows 3.1 could retrieve that data. I provided support to Microsoft customers that needed to use that tool. Since the product name was already owned by Symantec, the company was not "created" in 2003.

Searching for 'Threatfire' redirects to this page. There is no mention on this page of 'Threatfire', so quite frankly, why does it redirect here instead of just being a redlink? -Graptor 74.215.239.1 ( talk) 18:36, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
