I wasn't aware. Thanks for the warning though. I heard Norton Anti-virus wasn't that great before.

- Your welcome, it came from one of her friends that she has known for along time. Come to find out that it crashed her friends computer completly. I was able to save my sisters without wiping the hdd and reloading windows.

- I don't use norton antivirus. I quit using it 2 years ago when I got hit by 3 viruses within 6 months. I use Avast now and have not had any virus problems since.
