I wonder what I am doing wrong. I have Norton and zone alarm both on, and probably get a virus or worm in the mail several times a week. I never open them, so no problem, but as of yet I have never had anything pop up and warn me. My son who runs the same combo, pops up on any mail which contains a worm, but we have checked and all our settings are the same.
