have been told that once Norton places a questionable file in quarantine (ie suspected trojan) that if you delet the item from quarantine it will be deleted from your program files, thus removing the risk. However when you go to the Norton site, they have removal tools. Why would one need to use the removal tools if it is automatically deleted?

When I open the program, the normal window for the program pops up, but only about half of the window loads and then the program locks up. I am running it on Windows XP. Also, the auto scan that I set up before I had this issue still works every night. My biggest problem is that the Norton Firewall is blocking most of my programs. Please help me out with a solution.

I do have Norton, which blocked an intrusion attack, but for some reason my pc performance has slowed down.

So I am guessing a need something stronger to rid myself of this intruder.

A mate of mine downloaded a pirate copy of Windows Media Center 2002 and when the activation prompt came up he clicked it to see what would happen, expecting it to tell him he "had been a victim of software piracy" or something but it just activated fine. Any theories? lol

Yes, I know Microsoft has ended support. But...
I have an extra pc that I want to use for playing world of warcraft, storing my music, and some web browsing. I don't want to buy a copy XP because I already own a copy of 98.

The pc is and intel 4 1.5 ghz. 512 ram and basic components.
I will be using Mcafee virus protection and a firewall of some sort.
Is it still safe to run 98 this way? Does anyone else run 98 like this and have you had any problems?
-thanks

I have Comodo firewall and have found that it doesn't work well with Active Virus Shield and KAV :(
I hear Avast is better but uses more memory... so Avast or AntiVir or something else??

which of the 2 is the good or bad? the main website has http://www. on the home page but when you go on the same name of the website where you will pay for the transactions to be paid it becomes https://www. with a gold lock icon in the end of the add. bar. It is not that i don't thrust the website but I rather ask first to be sure. Asking for advice...Thanks !
