Norton does not work.\n\nUse these instead:\n\nComodo Antivirus\nComodo Firewall\nZone Alarm Firewall Anti-Virus / Anti-Trojan\nAVG Antivirus\nXoftSpy\nCounterSpy\nAdAware\n\nUsing this mix, you should be able to find and remove most of what is on your machine.

I'd go with Norton Ghost (Symantec) or DriveImage XML (Runtime Software)...

If you don't already use Norton 2006, go to Google, and type in Google Pack and click on the first link.  When it asks you the choices to download, choose he free trial version of Norton, don't worry, this is affiliated with Google and is safe to download.  Also go to http://www.safernetworking.com and download Spybot- S&D, do this after you get Norton.  And finally, go to Microsoft Update page for XP, and download Microsoft Ant-Spyware Beta, it is one of thier most popular.\n(note: not all of these are needed, but I use them and my PC is still fast)

you can go to http://download.com and do a search for AVG free\nit is a free virus scanning software...i like it a lot more than Norton because it isn't as annoying.  You might also want to do a search for spybot search & destroy.  It is a program that scans for spyware and other bad things and can remove them.

Neither - for now, I'm using the Beta version of Windows OneCare, which seems to have virus checking that is comparable to both Norton Antivirus 2005 and McAfee.  Only thing missing is e-mail scanning, which may well be added in future releases.

I place all my faith in the Symantec 'Nortons Internet Security' package for my desk top PC. It's never let me down yet (over 8 Years). I also use PC Cillan (provided by work) on my laptop but prefer Nortons.

Norton slows everything down.  Any antivirus program will, but Norton makes it REALLY slow.  \n\nI would not use it, there are much better alternatives out there, like Avast! or AVG. \n\nCheers!

What version of Norton are you using? are you using 2005? If yes, they you dont have to anything. It has an in built Anti spyware, which is heck lot better than Windows Defender. I would not personally recommend it to u coz it will make ur compture pretty much slow. Also, they may have some conflict with each, which may coz hard drive Crash, slow running comps, weird behaviors etc.

This is a known problem with Norton and they have a web-based tool available online at the following link...\n\nhttp://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/sharedtech.nsf/7e7f15291a25d938882567e50048a048/797708c8db6a451d88256e12005f4275?OpenDocument&src=bar_sch_nam\n\nIf that link doesn't work, you can goto http://www.symantec.com and go in the knowledgebase section and search for KB#2004010509301513.\n\nWhen using the Symantec AutoFix Tool online you MUST use the Internet Explorer web browser and not any others such as Firefox.\n\nHope this helps! :-)

I work for the USAF from home and it was recommended to me that I use Norton Systemworks. I have had it for 3 years and I love it! It blocks everything and I can use it's other functions to optimize my computer clean my computer and even regulate my trash or recycle bin!
