Agree with Anonymous. I've been using it on a few of my machines and "bloated" would not be a word I describe the eTrust as. Honestly, and ironically, that is the exact word I use for Norton stuff, being a Norton user for the past several years (rebate on top of rebate = almost free upgrades each year). Are you using a really old machine? I've seen eTrust not be too kind on old, low resources available, machines.
