I added a hdd I had in an old system and it had a virus in it. So I do a system can and Norton finds it. For some stupid reason it wont delete it. Is there any better virus software I can use? I have AVG but dont like it. Is McAfee any better?

I just got NOD32, in less then a minute of installing it, it found and deleted the virus.

nod32 is bad if u use bt. especially shadow's clients & bittornado. after i uninstall nod32, be goes back to normal, or else it freezes my internet and my dls. nod32 sucks for that reason only, other than that, it's fine.

Can you not delete from Quarantine ? Its found it but has no fix so you have to delete
manually. Do you have it set up right ?


Found three in my Quaratine file looks like newer one's from e-mails. I update daily so yours is probaly set right . But I did delete manualy . I'v never tryed Nod32 so can't coment. :)

just to point something out, if norton cant delete it, it means u should manually delete it. not hard at all


norton has never given me an issue in my life. if it couldnt delete something, it would tell me the location so i could delete it myself :P

Try giving Panda Titanium Antivirus 2004 (http://www.pandasoftware.com/products/titanium2004/) a shot.

NOD32 is great, isn't it? :lol:
I'm just glad you didn't go with McAfee. You think you got problems with Norton? :lol:

BTW, NOD32 is not a problem with a BT client like Azureus (http://azureus.sourceforge.net/).

I HAVE NOD32 AND WHEN I DO USE BT (ON THE ODD OCCASION), IT WORKS PERFECTLY.
