1263986 2012-03-09 11:37:00 When an antivirus reports a threat has been blocked , what does actually occur , does it only block the threat but it is still active or antivirus software removes it totally ? Nhashon (16466)
1263987 2012-03-09 11:46:00 A firewall blocks it an AV program doesnt. It either quarantines it or deletes / removes it Speedy Gonzales (78)
1263988 2012-03-09 23:49:00 Or in the case of Norton, tells you it is there but can't be removed while the system is running. Greven (91)
1263989 2012-03-10 00:14:00 Or in the case of Norton, it doesn't notice at all. pctek (84)
1263990 2012-03-10 07:56:00 If it's a decent security suite it will do exactly what it says - block it... if it's a Norton product it will probably give the nasty malware a tea and some muffins and invite it to stay. inphinity (7274)
