If you purchased Norton AntiVirus from some store or even online you should
have a CD from the first purchase or a file that you downloaded. If you
want a backup CD from a downloaded file, just burn a copy.

I used to use an Australian product "Vet" but it was bought out by
Computer Associates and renamed eTrust® EZ Antivirus, I ditched it
then. I agree with Panda_man because I now use NOD32 and never have a
problem with it.

Hi Peter

I have used CA's ezAntivirus for years and it is pretty good, if you go to
the following link, you can get it FREE for a year or $20 for two years.

I hope that helps
