The very point of my guide is not using D-Fend, as it causes compatibility problems with some games.
Also, a lot of "n00b-questions" we get on the forums tend to come from users who only used D-Fend to run games in DOSBox until they ended up with some simple problem that D-Fend could not get them past.
Finally, Norton is by no means the definite way to run things.
It's possible to create customized shortcuts and config files that allow you to run games in DOSBox simply by running the shortcut (easier than it sounds, too). Doing it for 90-something games can take some time and patience, though, and not everyone has sufficient amount of both (hell, I'm only doing it for the games I run most frequently). Using NC is a bit easier (though when I finish the guide, the shortcut thing will be there as the final chapter).
