Question
I am using XP Pro and first level Norton.
I visit news groups, Web sites etc.
Am I protected enough?
Advice appreciated.
regards Vic
Hi Vic,
When you say first level Norton, what do you mean? If your copy of NAV is up todate and you run a virus scan once a week, you should be protected.
Norton usually sends out new protection on Wednesday evenings, so Thursday mornings would be a good time to schedule a virus scan.
Hope this helps!

| Comment | Thank you Lorry Sorry for the delay in replying. It is the cheapest Norton!! But I do get updates and I run the system check regularly. I was told that I must have a firewall and various other types of protection as well. Many thanks Vic | ||

This happens to be of interest to me as it boggles my mind that people have nothing better to do than to write a virus. Wish these people, the ones who write viruses would put the knowledge to good use instead. My job as a local tech involves removing viruses and/or spyware.
