The Situation
Norton Internet Security 2004 came bundled with the Sony PCG-TR3A Picturebook

What Is A Pending Transaction
Pending transactions are transactions - credits, debits and holds -- that occur during a day, but that haven't yet been formally processed and posted to your account. Normally, they will be processed and posted to your account on the same business day that the transaction is made. In some cases, the amount of a pending transaction that you see on your account may not match the actual amount of the transaction. This is common. Some merchants place a small, initial hold against your account to ensure there are available funds. Once the full transaction amount is formally processed, that initial hold will be reversed. Such charges - known as authorization holds - often occur at hotels and car rental agencies.
The Phone Call To Symantec
Daniel...
Me: "So, now that you know what my review is going to say, what do you think of my proposed review?"
Customer Service: "I honestly can't say."
Poor guy, the call is probably being recorded so he is afraid to say "Thanks" for my publicizing this snafu.
Order number: 320xxxxxx
24 hours: run live update. It will grab onto new date.... 22 May 2005.
Also going to send me a backup if for any reason, 100% positive it will grab onto this, will also send me a subscription key.
will email the receipt.
