Norton AntiVirus 2008 protects your PC against spyware, viruses, and other Internet threats. It scans and cleans email and instant messaging attachments before they can plant malicious software on your system and before you can spread viruses and worms to others. "Set-and-forget" functionality delivers optimum antivirus protection right out of the box, without requiring any intervention. Norton AntiVirus works quietly in the background, so you can continue using your PC and the Internet without disruption and without having to respond to confusing security alerts. It automatically checks for and installs new threat signatures and product features as they become available throughout your service subscription.
Even if your computer is already infected, Norton AntiVirus is the ideal solution. It detects and removes spyware, viruses, and other security risks during installation, assuring a clean installation and a fresh start. A new, faster scanning engine minimizes the impact on your computer's resources, so you can continue to work or play without interruption.
Norton AntiVirus includes advanced technology to protect against new and unknown threats-because identity thieves and other cybercriminals change the shape of their malicious software to evade defenses that look for known signatures. SONAR (Symantec™ Online Network for Advanced Response) technology delivers behavior-based protection that can detect emerging spyware and viruses even before traditional signature-based definitions are available, while Internet Worm Protection blocks entire classes of viruses, spyware, and worms. Together, these unique technologies help keep you safe from increasingly common "zero-day" attacks.
