FYI the question is if there is any way to get to a log of the spyware scan previous activity and actions taken. Even just a simple list of items and the name of the malware program would be nice. I understand people don't necessarily like the program but I am seeking a specific answer to the question, not a general rating of the software. Thanks.

There are still zero answers to the actual question. Still hoping for a straight answer. Will extend time limit in hopes of getting an answer, if none, will cancel the question. I will select the first answer which leads me to the log or report I am seeking as best answer (if there is one). I will not select any answer which tells me to use some other program or complains about the toolbar, or otherwise fails to address the question. Feel free to ask if you do not understand the question.

I am asking specifically about the Norton free spyware scan that comes with the new Yahoo toolbar. Thanks.

(i cannot find one)

If it find anything a screen will appear for you to take actions. If nothing is found be glad.
I just downloaded the Nortons AS Toolbar today. I ran the full scan and it found a RAT Trojan on my computer. None of the other programs on my computer detected it. I selected the removal option and it was gone after a second scan. Looks like a good quality program so far.
beer_farts doesn't know what he is talking about. This is an Online scan program. It is stored on the server and a small programs is installed to run the online program. It uses almost none of your system resources.

hi, perhaps you can try Norton or Mcafee to remove the virus, but you should pay for the software.
i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.
besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.
download firefox for free:

Best Wishes && Good Luck!

Norton is a resource hog and slows down your PC

What does Norton say? They should be able to tell you what their program does, if they support it at all.
