626430 2008-01-01 21:26:00 Hi All. I am trying Norton 360 `All-In-One Security`. Most AV programs I`ve used in the past can scan a single file or folder via the right click context menu. Norton 360 does not appear able to do this. Is anybody out there using Norton 360 able to confirm this or have I missed a setting somewhere?
Unable to find anything on this on the Symantec web site.

626431 2008-01-01 21:35:00 I dont think anyone here uses Symantec / Norton programs now.

Especially any AV program of theirs.

That is a big assumption Speedy
There are many people here and elsewhere who use Norton without any problems.

To answer the question - Norton 360 version 2.0 just released has this ability.
Manually scan individual files and folders with a simple right click.

www.wwpi.com ... well that is good timing. It must have cause a bit of a ruckus amongst the users to lose that option.

Try out version 2.0 when it is released this month then.
