Has there been a new virus going around or something? Normally my Norton updates once a week, lately I have been getting messages, sometimes twice daily that YOUR NORTON HAS BEEN UPDATED and is installing , What's up with all this activity?

    Probably just a rash of viruses hitting the web right now.  Mine has been doing the same thing too.

    Don't sweat it Muddy, I use avast & had 10 updates today & 7 yesterday. There's a big rash of viruses/spyware recently hitting the 'net.

    Thanks, I have very little knowledge in this area and I didn't know why this was going on all of a sudden.

    My McAfee has been doing the same thing with the desktop.  Also, the Avast on my laptop has been internally hemorrhaging as well.
