I hate Norton & McAfee virus protection. When they tell you its time to renew
subscription and you tell then to get lost & for years they hound you to renew.
Norton (I don't know how) just gave me a quick scan & told me I have 18 problems.
How in the heck did they just do that? They have never done that before.
I haven’t paid for antivirus in years 🤷‍♂️
 
There are free virus scans. Just be careful. Check cnet
Norton just jumped up in here and ran a scan. I didn't ask them to.
I have antivirus program on my computer already installed like most do..
That was an invasion of privacy just to come in here uninvited.

If you have more than one antivirus installed they can actually conflict with each other. If you actively use another program then you should uninstall the Norton. Or vice versa.

Yep. That back door was in the original download. I wouldn’t worry about it if i only went to secure site… and never downloaded images or video files,… 😉🤙🏼
 
That's not my problem. They just showed up out of nowhere & ran a quick scan.
…took a second. Sorry. Check this out:


Take a screen shot of it if it pops up while in volnation and send it to Freak at this thread above 👆🏼
I was having a Norton ad pop up a couple of weeks ago.

Wow ... so you had Norton to pop up on you too? Did they run a quick scan?
