Hi Douglass,

gym and I were sending PMs back and forth and this message popped up on my screen. I was going to send it to Admin to question any potential problems, but you can't attach a picture on a PM.

What do you think about this?

Hope it isn't the White House. <Bazinga> ...I hope. :)

I know... I know... this isn't 1:1 True Macro. :wink:

I hate Norton with a passion. I believe nothing from the Norton program, which is always trying to sell a higher level program.

I use free http://free.avg.com/us-en/homepage , which has an outstanding reputation.

I have posted a PM to Admin, with a link to this thread.

Thanks for passing it on to Admin. I've used Norton for years with no problems or questionable experiences, until this one. I copied the PM link and ran a Norton Safe Web Search and it showed a totally reliable site and I use PMs all the time. Something quirky I think. These days you just never know.

From a TECH standpoint, Norton is the FIRST thing to REMOVE from a new computer!! AVG is one of THE best available!!

Answer from Admin: "It's most likely a false positive."
