pc-cillin found virus that norton missed plus i put it on my childrens computer and i use the ulr blocker to make sure they keep out of the chat rooms and my 15yr old out of the sex sites. i can also control their settings from my computer.

Put it this way I scan this laptop every week and I shortly before I removed nortons 2005 Internet Security ran a full check on both my laptops Harddrives nothing found, now I was house hunting all the next week so laptop was on move with me not online.

I then removed nortons as it was laggin the laptop and draggin performance down and found when I run a scan with Avast! Home, a Trojan Horse Virus ( win32 Trojan_Gen ) something close to that..so faster...more reliable...better ...built....AND FREE!!!!!! :D :D :D :D

2003 version of norton internet security was good then it stopped doing daily updates, thats when norton started going downhill. 2004 was crap and 2005 is worse, just glad there is others to choose from. pc-cillin did not cost me a penny and i can put it as many computers as i want

To cut a long story short, and for those in the know, I had a mate stay with me for a while ( handyman ) i'm sure we were running n.a.v 2002 on my desktop but had his lappy wirelessly networked, now, IIRC nortons would scan both machines as one unit :shrug:
The memory is a bit fuzzy about that time but i'm sure that was the case, are you networked ( i assume so ) if so, try enabling file sharing, if you want, ( no skeletons in the cupboard ;) )
I'm not up to speed on the whole process, i'm sure someone here will tell me i'm wrong, or about pitfalls ( if any ) about file sharing.

Anyhoo, just thought i'd mention it, hope it helps :tu:
