14702 2001-06-28 05:31:00 I use an IBM Aptiva 166. Norton Systemworks 2000 is installed but not set up to scan automatically. A short while back something was printed to the F1 column in the mag about the computer constantly scanning the A Drive and what caused it. I can't find the comment and the answer but my machine has started to do it. It's driving me crazy. Can someone either point me to the article or explain how to stop it. Guest (0)

I posted the original message about that one, it was a simple fix.

Clear the document history.

All done

I know in Norton Antivirus, there is an option about disabling the floppy scan on 'access' and 'when shutting down Windows'.

Try the above first ;-)
