I have Norton 2003 with current Virus Sigs.
I decided to scan my main computer with trend micro's free online scanner. I do this once every other week. I had this virus, the virus came out Sept 20th.

It must of sneaked in when I was downloading files on mIRC.
I usually have Grisoft's AVG on my computer, along with Norton,
but didn't install AVG, AFTER,
I formated my computer on did a re-installed on the O.S.

AVG is now installed and up to date now.
Oh, Norton.. why did thee fail me. :p

A lot of reasons some pick up, other miss. Try it again the next week, you may find the reverse happens.

Did you run a full scan with Norton immediately before trying Trends?

Yep.... :)

Maybe it will be on Norton's next 'round up of updates?
