Question
I have been playing Spider Solitaire via WorldWinner for a long time and for the past couple of days when I play Spider Solitaire, the music on the game will not stop playing even when I close the site and it overlaps with other games. Is this a virus? I ran a quick scan on my Norton Security and it did not detect anything.

Answer
I have not heard of any malware having this effect.
How long has it been since you updated your sound drivers and/or flash player (if it is a flash game)? If not try updating them.

This may be a long shot but with an online game we should not be so naive to think that just because it was alright for months they may have added something to it. It is a long shot but you can also try Malwarebytes. It will detect and remove things that anti-virus programs like Norton will not. Try it, it is free. www.malwarebytes.org.
