"... by default this patch will also try to install Symantec's Norton Security Scan, a clever marketing tool by Symantec that checks to see if you have malware on your system and then prompts you to buy their software to remove any found items. I find the bundling of a serious security update with this otherwise useless tool annoying, and potentially counter-productive... did they borrow the idea from the people pushing rogue anti-virus products (or was it the other way around?) At any rate, if you don't want this extra software, be sure to deselect that option before proceeding with the update."
