I would have expected Norton to quarantine the file. It's not uncommon for Norton to be unable to 'repair' a file carrying a virus, so it puts it into a quarantine area, presumably so that later virus definitions might be used to better effect. Have a look in Reports\Quarantined Items, that's usually where Norton quarantines stuff. Ian Porter Computer Guys Inc.
