I have had the latest version of Symantec antivirus software on my computer for several months, and up until the past week, the daily scan that I’ve set to occur every morning now doesn’t seem to actually be scanning any files. I’ll go back to my computer several hours after the scan was set to begin and I’ll see the message that either the scan is beginning or that it’s scanning a particular file group, but the scan never actually finishes. It still reads that zero files have been scanned so far, but the message at the top of the Symantec window indicates that a scan is in progress. Before all of this started, it would show a running tally of the number of files scanned while the scan was in progress.
Also, I don’t recall ever having seen any actual malicious files found by Symantec on my computer, although I also run AdAware anti-spyware every few days and it has found files that Symantec has not.
Could both of these things indicate problems with my Symantec files?
I had good results with Symantec on my desktop computer, which is running Windows ME, but I’ve got XP on my laptop, which is the computer in question. I’ve been satisfied with AdAware as far as finding spyware.
What is AVG?
I’m not sure which version I’ve got. I installed it last October. I’ve got Windows XP on my computer. The file version says 14.0.0.89.

The scanning schedule and make sure there are no errors during updates manually and make sure your license is not expired.
The symnrt symantec released product which featured spyware detection and adwares have you can get the engine of the norton removal utility.
My best bet you may reinstall the 2007 release the 2007 release of this feature was not so good in the engine of symantecs norton user for years now and adwares have you have nis2007 and regarding the engine and removal utility but the 2006 symantec released product are you using because it works like charm and adwares have nis2007 and removal tool it.
