Renegade Posted January 16, 2004 Report Posted January 16, 2004 I gave my computer a routine norton virus scan when after scanning about 1mb the scan window just vanished without a trace, as if I actually closed the program. I tried it again and again but I got the same thing happen. Any help please?
MrRant Posted January 16, 2004 Report Posted January 16, 2004 It could be a virus. Try downloading another one like AVG or something from the thread pinned at the top and see if it completes. If so and no virus then Norton could just need to be reinstalled.
Eclipse Posted January 17, 2004 Report Posted January 17, 2004 Yes, it is a virus. You actually have the same virus that I had. Rant remembers that thread I made. I scanned my system in safe mode, and that took out the virus. The virus you have prevents you from doing anything antiviral during regular system boot up. It closes all AV software, and even prevents you from editing the registry. Just make sure you have the latest definitions and scan in safe mode.
Guest bort Posted January 17, 2004 Report Posted January 17, 2004 I had a virus like the one you have i think, it wouldnt let me run Nortan at all, or burn cds or check my emails
