Protip: uninstall Norton and get something better.
McAffe never failed me.

Norton is stuff, lets anything in your computer, but complains about applications more than real viruses.  It detects other security systems as viruses and disarms itself and the other security software in the process.  It's useless.

I agree about Norton, but I think McAfee is a bit lax when it comes to virii. It tends to let a few in, which isn't good.
I suggest Nod32, BitDefender, Kaspersky or Trend Micro.

Which program do you use personally?

Ha, my parents just bought a new computer. They made me set it up for them. The first thing I did was uninstall Norton and install another software. xD




Protip you can disable those alerts.
Plus Norton is really awesome at catching virus
and PC Tools is Norton just under a different name


God, when I bought this computer it came with some lame norton preinstalled that asked me to activate it every 6 hours. I don't think I've still removed every trace of it from my hard drive seeing as it was installed PRETTY MUCH EVERYWHERE. I hit uninstall on the like 5 components in the uninstall menu, and there was still like 10 folders scattered around with random files from it.

Uninstall norton and go without a antivirus.

+5FPS also.

Kaspersky.

This.

My sister works in a Kaspersky Office, so I also get free CDs and Keys :D
Has never failed me.

I like Norton, however that message is lol.


This happened to me when I ran BL.  I disabled it.. I am trying to remember how tho..
