The world’s number four PC brand, Acer, has chosen Symantec security software “Norton Internet Security 2006” or “Norton AntiVirus 2006” to ship preinstalled on its PCs and notebooks worldwide.

Customers will be able to use Norton Internet Security 2006 or Norton AntiVirus 2006 for a 90-day complimentary trial; when the trial period ends, customers can then purchase a full 12-month subscription.

“The inclusion of Symantec security solutions with Acer desktop and notebook computers helps ensure that our customers are able to enjoy the safest, most productive computing experiences,” said Acer’s Jim Wong.
