Norton AntiVirus

Norton AntiVirus is an anti-virus software that finds and repairs infected files, and protects against viruses to keep your computer data safe and secure.

How do I check for viruses?

A Full System Scan scans all files on your computer. To perform a system scan:

1Start Norton AntiVirus.

Double click on the Norton AntiVirus Icon on the desktop or click on the Start menu in the Windows taskbar, highlight Programs, and select Norton AntiVirus.

2In the Norton AntiVirus main window, click Scan for Viruses.

3In the Scan for Viruses panel, click Scan My Computer.

4Under Actions, click Scan.

5When the scan is complete, a scan summary appears. Click Finished.

You can schedule customized virus scans that run unattended on specific dates and times or at periodic intervals. If you are using the computer when the scheduled scan begins, it runs in the background so that you do not have to stop working.
