wiseheartMy life is so full of joy it's hard to bear - not!
Norton told me yesterday that they can't protect my PC from a quickly spreading trojan virus. I went to the Symantech site and downloaded all the updates. Then I restarted the PC as a good little user is supposed to do. Guess what happened? Yep you're right. Norton told me that they can't protect my PC from the same virus.
I went to Live Update and clicked Immediate Protection. After several minutes of trying, it told me that if can't download the updated virus descriptions. I went back to the Symantech site and they found another update to Norton Antivirus. I downloaded the thing. Restarted the PC. Guess what happened? Yeah, you've won. Norton told me that they can't protect my PC from the same virus. I turned the PC off.
Am seriously worried now. Should I unplug my modem while working on my PC? Or what the heck am I supposed to do? I'm such an Internet illiterate, most things that come normal for other people remain a secret with seven seals for me. I'm afraid that my PC gets infected and all my stuff corrupted. But I need the frigging thing. I can't stay at school and work from here all the time.
Plus, my Live Update runs out next month. Must go to unfriendly neighbour freek for help again. Is very bad for my mental health, such as it is.
