| 417478 | 2006-01-02 22:04:00 | Any idea why my Nortons is not catching it? My auto protect is on and my definitions are up to date as of 12-30-05. | new2424 (8187) | ||

| 417480 | 2006-01-02 22:12:00 | Some programs may catch it, some may not. Have you done a scan recently with Nortons? What version of Nortons is it? 2003? 04? 05? 06? If 2003, I would check its virus list and see if Topsearch is in it. |

| 417482 | 2006-01-02 23:32:00 | Im running 2003 Norton system works. I just did a One Button Checkup and everything was ok. I checked the virus list and Topsearch isn't on there. I guess i need to upgrade to 2006? what is NIS 2006? Norton Internet Security? Is this an add on or a replacement for my system works? |

| 417483 | 2006-01-02 23:42:00 | Im running 2003 Norton system works . I just did a One Button Checkup and everything was ok . I checked the virus list and Topsearch isn't on there . I guess i need to upgrade to 2006? what is NIS 2006? Norton Internet Security? Is this an add on or a replacement for my system works? Thats it Norton Internet Security . Dunno, if Systemworks, has it or not, I've never used systemworks . Just use programs like Adaware and spybot to scan for spyware/adware entries . These are free to use . |
