I have Norton Utilities installed--mostly for the times that I choose to use CleanSweep and maintenence features. Along with it is Norton AV, which I do use to keep my AV updates. However, the only thing I have running is Norton Autoprotect to check files. I do NOT have it checking all my email. It takes forever and a ton of resources to do that. I understand that using Norton in this way, it only uses resources when necessary for checking files. Is this correct? Sue ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
