Enabling and disabling Auto-Protect
By default, Auto-Protect guards against viruses as soon
as your computer starts. It checks programs for viruses
as they run and monitors your computer for any activity
that might indicate the presence of a virus. Running a
Norton AntiVirus manual scan is not necessary as long
as Auto-Protect is enabled. Auto-Protect interception
prevents viruses from infecting your computer, and you
should keep Auto-Protect turned on.
To disable Auto-Protect temporarily
4 On the Norton QuickMenu, click Norton AntiVirus >
Disable Auto-Protect.
When you disable Auto-Protect, the Norton
QuickMenu changes the icon for Norton AntiVirus to
remind you that you have disabled your protection.
If you have turned off Auto-Protect, you should enable it
as soon as possible.
To enable Auto-Protect
4 On the Norton QuickMenu, click Norton AntiVirus >
Enable Auto-Protect.
