security & virus software

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: April

Could someone give me step by step procedure to change my Norton Security virus software. This is my problem. It wants to scan for virus everytime I open excel or if I'm working on my family tree. And it takes a long g g g g time to close the family tree and then norton locks it up. I don't mind the scaning if I'm getting something over the internet, e-mail etc. or even if I send something my self. But just to be working off line what have you it wants to scan. I find it hard to do any work at all. Is it possible to reprogram or reset the setting for this problem? Any help is appreciated.
thanks April
