DOKKEN Wants To Blow Up Your Chicken - Sep. 9, 2009
DOKKEN is featured in a new commercial for Norton Internet Security 2010, the latest virus, spyware and Internet protection software from Symantec. Watch the clip below. (Note: Three different versions of the commercial are available.)

A description of the commercial reads as follows: "Imagine that your hard drive is a chicken. '80s heavy metal band DOKKEN is a computer virus that wants to blow up your chicken. Don't allow heavy metal bands to have their way with your chicken. Get PC protection with Norton Internet Security 2010."

As previously reported, DOKKEN's "Greatest Hits, Vol. 2" — a collection of all-new versions of tracks such as "Dream Warriors", "Breaking the Chains" and "Just Got Lucky", paired with several new songs and a cover of "Lies" by THE KNICKERBOCKERS — is tentatively due in October via Rhino.

DOKKEN's latest album "Lightning Strikes Again", was released on May 13, 2008 via Rhino Records. The CD is DOKKEN's tenth studio album and it "mark[ed] a true and definite return" to the band's classic sound, according to a press release.

In addition to the regular European version of "Lightning Strikes Again", Frontiers Records released a special limited edition of the CD on April 11, 2008 in a glossy slipcase. The limited-edition version included an exclusive bonus track for Europe, entitled "Sunset Superstar".

But fuck Norton. Does nothing but sap your system resources. And they charge you for this shit. Plenty of free software on the web that does a far better job.

Plus, they probably invent half the viruses that are out there so they can justify their existence as a legitimate company. Think of it like the pharmaceutical industry coming up with medications for ailments that nobody has ever heard of. They make this shit up to scam you into thinking their expensive bullshit is necessary.

LOL...paranoid much? Norton's one of the singularly best antivirus sites available anywhere, if it's "sapping your system" and "creating bogus viruses" for you, I'd say it's something you're doing wrong. I've used it for years and never seen anything even remotely like that.

PROTECT YOUR CHICKEN FROM DOKKEN!!!!

Love it!

You're obviously well read. By all means, please continue wasting your money.

Did I say that it saps MY system resources? No. Did I say MY rig was infected by bogus viruses? No. I know better than to use that garbage.

Do you even know what antivirus software is? There is absolutely nothing ANTI about it. But I digress, you know your shit.

I have Norton on my computer and it's good about finding viruses. It always tells me, Norton has found a virus on your computer but was not about to remove it. And then I have to research how to remove the infected file myself because Norton is a piece os shit.

1) They need a tougher band than Dokken. Hell, it's not even the real Dokken. Where are Lynch and Pilson?
2) Buy a Mac and you won't need that Norton garbage.
3) Your mama.

I don't want what's left of the 80's band Dokken anywhere near my chicken. He's obviously been eating too much of his own. The only scary thing about Dokken is that they look like someone's parents came back from a Halloween party drunk.

If you dont download Dokken,you wont have any problems!

Actually saw them with the original lineup when i was 12. Great show,even though not my type of metal. Lynch is an amazing guitarist.

Anti Virus software is a joke. It does take alot of resources for doing very little. Having a couple grams of brain matter will prevent you from getting 99% of stuff. Just stop downloading animal porn and you should be fine.

The reason Macs dont have viruses is because not nearly as many people use them,so no point in fucking with them. And they cost 2-3 times for the same performance,which is a joke since they are made mostly with the same Intel parts now. But they do make you LOOK cool...haha

lynch was just as important to that as don was. funny how you say no one wants to copy him because that's exactly what don's new little guitar puppet did on 'lightning strikes'. and don even admits it. you'd understand if you had more than 2 braincells to rub together.

I like seeing companies take risks with their advertising, even those I despise like Symantec. NAV is a well documented system hog, although I haven't used any version in years so perhaps they've improved that issue.

It would have been better if they had had Ozzy threatening to bite the head off of a bird, though.

"You're obviously well read. By all means, please continue wasting your money."

- Cool thing is, Norton doesn't cost me anything at all. I have it provided for me free of charge. What made you assume that I was paying for it?

"Did I say that it saps MY system resources? No. Did I say MY rig was infected by bogus viruses? No. I know better than to use that garbage."

- Good for you. Of course, the fact that it doesn't sap YOUR system resources and doesn't infect YOUR rig with bogus viruses because YOU don’t use it doesn't lend any credibility towards YOUR assumption that it does those things to OTHER people, does it? Nope. In fact, since YOU don't use it, YOU'RE not in any position to say what it does or what it doesn't do. Or so I'd say. Unless you HAVE used it, but you didn't say that.

"Do you even know what antivirus software is?"

- Yes. Are you having difficulty following the discussion?

"There is absolutely nothing ANTI about it."

- Norton has never installed a virus on my computer or detected a false virus, but it has alerted me to several attempts attacks and infections, and then allowed me to successfully stop and remove them. This is the truth. I have nothing to gain by lying, do I? Sorry if you don’t like it, but I certainly don’t have any pro-Norton agenda at work here. Just the truth from my own experience. But I guess you'd know better than I do, computer genius that you are.

" But I digress, you know your shit."

- Oh, on the contrary! I'll concede defeat; you're obviously far more the computer nerd than I could ever aspire to be. I'll just have to rest assured in my own little corner of the world that I do know how to operate Norton (and the other three anti-virus programs I have installed and running), that all three of them don't even add up to a drop in the bucket of my operating systems capabilities and it’s never created any bogus viruses. But hey, you're the expert. I lose, you win. Do your happy dance; I defer to your genius.
