What you need to do is contact Norton or quit downloading from the pirate
sites/torrents.

From all the reading I do here, sounds like Norton has lots of Problem in Vista
NEVER seen it recommended (its all most as if Norton is a Virus)
Avast, AVG and Nod 32 are among the most frequently recommended for vista

lucky me I guess

To SCAN for viruses I use SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes
