August 20, 2002 at 2:25 am #100997detn8rParticipantA firewall? ZoneAlarm
A AV? NortonAV2002.Detn8r
Graham CoatsAugust 20, 2002 at 5:49 am #101013VaderXMemberNO!
firewall keeps trojan out and AV checks for virus.

August 20, 2002 at 5:32 pm #101000PhilMemberDon’t u just hate the fact that we have to go thru all this trouble to stop people from messin up our computers!! whats the incentive, i dont understand why people enjoy messin up peoples lives, strange!! why cant we just use the internet in harmony!! tis a very strong opinion i hold!!
August 23, 2002 at 6:26 am #101012VaderXMemberphil… using internet in harmony is like a dream that will never come true… unless micr*s*ft(ouch..) makes an unhackable windows and an unhackable server… and in the mean time u gotta use wat there is to use… u got no other choice (unless u decide to switch to MAC ofcourse)
PEACE!VaderX

August 23, 2002 at 8:21 pm #101011VaderXMembersomething strange happened to me….. i got Norton AV 2002 and when it was installed, Norton ran a check for virus on my system…. and guess wat? it found a virus in its own folder…. this is wat i mean… it found a virus in Norton AV 2002 folder in C:/Program Files….

August 27, 2002 at 6:22 am #101015krisMemberThats the first place a virus goes is to knock out the defense system ( In your case it happened to be Norton’s ) so it can’t be dectected, luckily u caught it in time .
August 28, 2002 at 5:17 am #101014VaderXMemberwell as soon as i installed Norton AV….. i restarted my computer and as my computer restarted… Norton checked the computer b4 i could access my internet…. and without downloading or any internet activity…. norton a friggin virus in its own folder and its own file…..

August 29, 2002 at 8:59 am #100999PhilMemberWOW ur really lucky you are!! imagine if u hadnt restarted the computer…u wuda been totally vulnerable!!! *wipes away a bead of sweat*, im sure u can relax now!!! next step is to get a firewall if u dont already have one, and ull be nice and safe from hackers….HOPEFULLY!!!
