Lol, I think Norton is out to lunch, but it even gave me the street address the hacker, he comes from Plano, Texas. I can give the street number, but feel it truly wasn't a hacker. Anyway, any info as to why it would have detected this would be great :) It even gave me zip code etc:) im gonna send you a bomb lol, jj. Btw the IP is 64.108.213.7

um, that's my location and ip address

I thought Norton was only for viruses. Does it do hackers also? Btw, what's Norton say was changed?
-
He must have Norton Internet Security!
Ameritech Electronic Commerce NET-AMER-6410800 probed his ports while he was on the forum and thought it was from the forums.
the IP traces to ILLONOIS.

Yah, I don't have faith in Norton anymore:( It didn't catch me decoy virus, and gives false hack alarms lol.

Norton has screwed my computer 4 times now, i gave up on it........
-
It's an overly protective program I think.

i agree with that one, i had systemworks, and it took all of my RAM away from me constantly, and deleted files randomly, ive had to wipe my HD three times in the last 4 months....

works fine for me, just use adaware or sumpin with it. it cant detect everything, damn thats why everyone says to use atleast 2 anti-virus programs and 1 or to anti-spyware programs.:roll:
-
I also use adaware.
- Jesse
-
just use Nod32 :wink:
-
I got McAfee, Zone Alarm Pro Firewall and Microsoft Anti-Spyware. I havn't had a hacker or virus problem in 3 years. It helps to have someone in the family who works in computer security for a web hosting company.

i personally like norton. macafee is a close second.
i used to use zone alarm, but i dident like it too much.
the new norton does it all: has a recovery program(goback), norton antivirus, firewall, privacy thing, and now thay added spyware protection.
