Malware Vs. Norton Anti Virus

Published by skiweaver9 at 8:44 am under Uncategorized Edit This

I just renewed my Norton Anti Virus on Monday of this week. I have had anti virus for about 4 years now and its worked fine. I did my normal yearly renewal and then ran a full scan. Everything came back fine, no viruses or anything.  Then I went to google to search for something and I noticed my searches were coming up with the wrong addresses. It only seemed to happen in google, and the searches not only were wrong, but took a long time to search. I went to a different search engine and searched for “Wrong links popping up in google” and I found that I must have Malware. This is something that Norton Anti Virus is supposed to detect and fix, but for some reason its ’slipping’ through.   Now I am on hold with Norton to try to figure this out. I’ve ran all other scans, cc cleaner, superantispyware, adaware, registry mechanic….everything is fine. This is really annoying that I am wasting my time trying to do Nortons job.  For the record- I NEVER have problems like this on my Mac. Grrrrr….
