Norton Antivirus is not a free program. It's not really the best virus scanner either. You might want to try AVG, Avast!, or Active Virus Shield. \nhttp://www.activevirusshield.com/antivirus/freeav/index.adp\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5\nhttp://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

★★ VIRUS SCANNERS & TIPS ★★\n\n◙ The very best virus scanners are free. Mcafee & Norton Antivirus are mostly hype and won't do as good as the free ones. -- About.com & Smart Computing Magazine\n\n◙ Download and install AVG. Use it first and see if it finds any viruses or trojans.\n\n☞ http://free.grisoft.com/doc/1\n☞ http://www.grisoft.com/doc/products-avg-anti-virus-free-edition/lng/us/tpl/tpl01\n\n◙ After running AVG go here and run this virus scanner online. There is no need to install it on your computer.\n\n☞ http://housecall.trendmicro.com/\n\n◙ Microsoft's New Live Safety Center. Download this scanner to check and remove spyware, viruses, get rid of obsolete files and junk off your computer, and improve your PCs performance.\n\n☞ http://safety.live.com/site/en-US/default.htm?s_cid=msep\n\n◙ The Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool checks computers running Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows Server 2003 for infections by specific, prevalent malicious software—including Blaster, Sasser, and Mydoom—and helps remove any infection found. When the detection and removal process is complete, the tool displays a report describing the outcome, including which, if any, malicious software was detected and removed. You can run this tool online FREE.\n\n☞ http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx\n\n◙ Before downloading email attachments in Gmail and Yahoo Mail click on the link that says, "Scan With Norton Antivirus".\n\n◙ Before downloading any software from the internet type it into http://groups.google.com/ to see if that title is known for spyware or viruses. Google Groups has over 1 billion posts spanning 25 years to help you. Even after checking it there ALWAYS scan it before opening it. You just can't be too careful. -- Smart Computing Magazine\n\n◙ A lot of the download sites like http://www.download.com/ and http://www.tucows.com/ scan software before releasing it to the public. But just for safety sake you should still scan it yourself.\n\n◙ Here is a really great article on browser hijacking. This will show you how to get rid of it. There is a tutorial and software to get rid of part of it. You'll need to make some changes to your computer's registry to get rid of the rest of it. Click on the chatroom link on their main page if you need help.\n\n☞ http://www.spywareinfo.com/articles/hijacked/\n\n◙ Here is Yahoo!'s Internet Security section.\n\n☞ http://security.yahoo.com/\n\n◙ Below is Mcafee's Site Adviser. Type in a URL in the form here and you will find out if the site you want to go to is known for phising (getting your personal info under false pretenses), viruses, spyware, and many other things. You can use the tool on their site or download an program to do that.\n\n☞ http://www.siteadvisor.com/\n\n◙ Get more information at these PC Magazine Web sites.\n\n☞ http://www.pcmag.com/\n☞ http://www.smartcomputing.com/\n\n◙ Top 100 Computer & Software Magazines.\n\n☞ http://netvalley.com/top100mag.html\n\n★★ TOOLS FOR SPECIFIC VIRUSES & TIPS ★★\n\n◙ Sometimes you'll get a particularly nasty virus that cannot be removed with conventional tools. For times like these you can (quite often not always) download a removal tool for that specific virus. Below are some sites you should look at.\n\n☞ http://www.grisoft.com/doc/Utilities/Ing/us/tpl/tpl01\n☞ http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/tools.list.html\n☞ http://www.bitdefender.com/site/Download/browserFreeRemovalTool/\n\n◙ Below is a tool called "Stinger" that Mcafee put together with all 54 of it's tools in it.\n\n☞ http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/

Mcafee VirusScan ( http://www.mcafee.com )- I highly recommend it!\n\nFor a firewall you can just use the one that comes with Windows if you have XP SP2 or download Zonealarm ( http://www.zonelabs.com )\n\nFor Anti-Spyware try Windows Defender- http://www.download.com/Microsoft-Windows-Defender/3000-8022_4-10502712.html?tag=lst-0-2\n\nAll of these programs take up minimal resources. Steer clear of Norton whatever you do!\n\nHope this Helps!
