adhawkins Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 Get McAfee, heard too many people having problems with Nortons to be honest. The first thing most virus scanners will do after installation is a full scan of the hard disk. However, if there's nothing on there you want (and you've got the OS CD) then a full re-format and re-install would be a good idea, get rid of all the crap before you start.
