spyware problem that norton didnt catch
I recently had a box come up that says Warning spyware detected on your computer Install an antivirus or spyware remover to clean your computer. the problem is that i already have norton. I run a scan and found 1 spyware problem so i fixed it but the box never went off my screen it is like it is a different background. why did norton not catch it in the first place and is there spyware that norton cant find?

Re: spyware problem that norton didnt catch
Norton is a horrible program to begin with.
For your protection needs I would use. AVG Free SuperAntiSpyware SpywareBlaster Sunbelt Firewall Run a SuperAntiSpyware scan and also a Spybot Search and Destroy scan. Honestly, those free solutions will protect you better than Norton, it is not very good at all.
