[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1771576, member: 83420"] Hi Mike, Not what you want to hear, but I feel obliged to mention it for your consideration. Norton AV will not help you keep safe, will hog resources and should be uninstalled. Working in the IT industry, as you state, conditions you to the ever-present and ever-changing world of viruses - [B]in the Windows environment[/B]. There are no true viruses in the wild that affect Macs. Malware, yes, and Malwarebytes is a great app for dealing with that. I am sure that the vast majority of Mac users in this and other Mac-related Forums would agree that AV software, especially Norton, is not necessary. Feel happy to ignore this post. I shall not be offended.:) Ian [/QUOTE]
