 AC> Hi all, I am looking for info regarding setting for my antivirus to
 AC> scan my internet download prior to saving to my download directory.
 AC> I thought that when downloading from internet the antivirus was
 AC> suppose to scan for virus and clear it as virus free and then lets you
 AC> save it to your download directory. It does not do so when i download,
 AC> the files i download goes straight to my download directory without
 AC> being check  by norton antivirus. Can someone tell me how to set norton
 AC> to scan before saving to my download directory.
simple, get and install the memory resident version (tsr or vxd -
depending on whether you're using windows or not)...
of course you realize it won't be able to do anything with compressed
archives... i'm not sure norton has the capability to open compressed
archives on it's own... for those you'll need some sort of shell like
thdpro or you could decompress the files manually and then scan them..
this is a concern since most of the things you will download off the
internet will probably be compressed...
... press ctrl-alt-del to continue...
