You can get a virus at any time, even if your anti-virus is running. But especially if the anti-virus definitions are up to date. New viruses are being discovered daily - some can infect your computer before anti-virus updates are made that prevent infections. It is a good practice to do a complete system scan at least once a month, with current virus definition files.

Yes you can. New virus' come out everyday! Norton isn't fool proof. You as the browser need to think smart beause there are virus' that can actually shut down Norton if it passes Nortons Active Shield which happens.
