This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Norton Small Business by Symantec for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

In the past few months, I have received emails from a friend that she did not intentionally send. Each time she said that some kind of virus had attacked her system and that she was sorry, and would look into the problem. It’s been a few weeks now since the last incident, so hopefully she has found a solution.

As a small business owner who works from home on my own computer, protecting it from malware and viruses and whatever new things there be that might want to seek, kill and destroy my work is important. Sometimes it is a source of great frustration by slowing my computer down to a snails pace so I can’t accomplish as much as I’d like to.

For those who have small business, and I know authors are among those as writers work hard to protect their work…and most if not all of that work is done on computer…you may be interesting in know that you can get 30% off Norton Small Business Products now, products important for protecting your work. This might be worth looking into for you. Look specifically for the Norton 360 and the Norton Internet Security 2012 that was released in the fall.

When was your computer last attacked? What services or products do you think would save your work and computer from attack by malware, and you the aggravation of a slow computer? Tell us your story in a comment, and take a look at Norton Small Business by Symantec.
