    Be aware of some of the pop-ups that actually use the Norton check mark and circle logo...DO NOT click on any of them, regardless of circle colors (phonies are often red, as opposed to Symantec/Norton yellow)...Instead, download trials ONLY at Symantec/Norton site itself!

    you know fake anti viruses are quite ironic because they say your computer is infected which they are, but it isn't infected with what it says you are.
