lol..... I had this with Norton, when i looked into it more, it adviser i download Trend Micro PC-Cillin anti virus you can do a free online scan. and it got rid of my trojanhorse.

I would be worried.

I ended up buying Pccillin every year after that, as Norton just told me they cannot sort out a Virus but another company can...... this suggests to me the other software is better.

There is a theory that the anti virus companies are creating the viruses to sell their products.
Apple Macs don't get viruses!!
Also, if your getting pop ups saying your security is not up to date and threats have been found and you need to download "this" product................thats a virus too.
