Considering the one time I used Norton Internet Security it broke my internet access completly, you might be right.

That's not really "very funny" because that just seems to be how they named their algorithm for finding trojan horses by behavioral analysis. I'm sure other companies do it too, but just name it differently and probably use their own algorithms to do so. Since it's analyzing behavior and attempting to find viruses even before they are analyzed by their staff, it's not too strange that it sometimes detects innocent programs as being viruses as well. I'm sure other solutions also do that, and it's probably mostly caused by the code injection and such we need to change Renegade. That may appear irregular/hostile.
Having said that, I have almost only heard bad things about Norton's virus scanner, so I wouldn't recommend it either. Nearly all virus scanners are in that category for me though.
