    Posted by MARTY on 8 January 2004 at 22:13

    We have two computers both loaded the same and both on the net with different modems, but it seems when I connect with one system then
    Norton anti virus detects a virus.
    Its not a problem as its detected and deleted but it only happens on the one system and about 75% of the time ?. This is while looking at sites and not from the Emails.

    Marty,

    I had a similar problem once, have you looked at the Symantec knowledge base for whatever virus was found to see what its symptoms are ? I usually start there and then possibly run a separate removal tool (if there is one) on each computer in turn.

    Other than that can’t help really, good luck !

    Marty,

    What operating system you using?

    Had the same problem on mine about 5 months ago (windows XP) when used to dial up on my 56k modem, to solve the problem I had to firewall the connection (a pretty simple task to perform in XP).
