Hi,

I'm running Norton Antivirus 2007 on my PC I keep getting a alert message telling me that Norton has blocked an intrusion from accessing my PC which is fine but it keeps coming up and freezes my PC for a few seconds. This happens every few minutes when I'm on the net.

I have checked Norton instructions on how to turn off alerts which I have done but I am still getting this alert everytime. I have scanned my PC for any trojans and viruses which comes up with nothing. Possibly I could have some bogus software trying to access a port on my PC.

Any suggestions on how to disable this alert message or is it worth that I post a hijack this log.

Thanx

What have you done to turn off alerts?

Hi,

This is the instructions I got from Norton and I followed them and turned off alerts but the message I stated still comes up.

1. Open Norton AntiVirus 2007

2. Click on the "Options" button on the left window pane, and then click on "Norton Protection Center."

3. De-select the box that says "Show Security Status on Windows Taskbar."

4. Click "OK."

5. Next, I advise you to run a Full System scan on your computer to make sure that you are not infected. (Which I did and came up with nothing).

You may want to go to "Start" "Run" and type in "msconfig" Now go to the services tab and select the checkbox next to "Do Not Show Microsoft Services." Find the Norton Notification, etc. and disable it. You may as well be able to disable it on the "Startup" tab.

Hi,

I followed your instructions but could not see Norton Notification but it could be called something. I don't what toturn off the wrong alert.

This process seems to be called atrack.exe, otherwise known as the Norton Alert Tracker. Is that located there? More information can be found here.

I still can't find that file 'atrack.exe' or Norton Alert tracker to turn off(or untick) i nthe System Configuration Utility tab where u suggested that I should look. I'm still getting that annoying message.
