Symatec Corporate Edition 9.0.3.100, this is a powerful antivirus tool.

Do you have real time protection checked?
A good 'real time protection' should have never aloud those file to get infected. I had this same problem with every version of corp.

my comp. got virus cause i didn't have any anti virus installed, So those viruses were found after i installed symantec. I have enabled the real time protection, so i hope i don't get virus anymore.

oh BTW i have figured the way to delete the infected files, I had to change the settings:
Configure-->File System Auto-Protect-->Actions-->Changed "First Action" & "Second Action" to my likings.

Thanks guys..

Ok, I see. Just after using it for years and testing, I have decided it's not for me or my system.
