I run Norton on my computer weekly...it keeps finding a virus called W32.HLLW.Gaobot which it leaves alone rather than deleteing and says the status is "infected"...Can anyone help???

Usually, the anti virus program shows the path of the file. (ex.- C:\Documents and Settings\Name\My Document). Find the folder where the virus is, and delete it manually.

Shut down the norton anti-virus temporarily and open up and turn on the one in your Yahoo toolbar and run that one to see if it deletes it . You can always turn either off and on when you like.
