Norton has always been bad A/V software. They were hacked and their source code leaked widely TWICE! I Avoid it.

I have heard of several cases where MBAM worked, as well as a few where it didnt. Kapersky works too, at least so I have heard. I have another PC in the house here that runs AVAST! A/V with MBAM Pro monitoring the system in real time. I deliberately tried to infect that machine with this virus and the AVAST! - MBAM combo stopped it dead in it's tracks.

I suppose in the end, good common sense is the best weapon against a virus.

the viruses in my computer have created an anti-virus wall or something, whenever another virus trying to infect my computer, it fixed itself...
