Norton AntiVirus notifies you that it has detected a virus
or other security risk when one of the following has
occurred:
1 Auto-Protect has found a virus while monitoring your
computer.
1 A virus scan that you scheduled or started manually
has found a virus.
With default settings, Norton AntiVirus automatically
attempts to repair any virus it finds. If it can’t repair the
file, Norton AntiVirus safely quarantines the file, so that
it cannot harm your computer. Usually, Norton AntiVirus
performs these repairs without any action by you.
In certain circumstances, Norton AntiVirus asks you
whether you want to repair, delete, or restore an infected
file. Your responses determine what Norton AntiVirus
does with the infected file.
w For more information about a particular virus, refer to the
Symantec Security Response Web site.
