    hi..
    i have norton 2005 and i've got a few issues i just cant seem to resolve.
    A- it keeps comin up with a trojan virus and som adware threts which apparently can neither be quaratined nor deleted. ive tried to resolve this issue via the instructions on the support site. all in vain.
    B- as soon as i click on view activity log it says norton antivirus has encountered a problem and though the software dsonet close down i still canot view the activity log , hence i dont know where tehse viruses/threats are breeding.

    can anyone plz come up with some/any solution??
    thanks.
    ps: ive already tried the safe mode and disabling of secure points and then run the scan...dosnet help. the only way lft is to manually del teh entries from the registry....dont know how if the activity log dosnet open!

    Yes the first time you start firefox it takes a while. After that it`s quite quick.
