Hi Naturegal.....
A really good addition to your Norton is the AVG antivirus scanner...
It's a free software program and will not only locate the problem, it will
also remove it by deletingit or move it into "THE VAULT- QUARINTINE".
I also have Norton and where some features are good, parts miss deep
components..
Sometimes, it's good to have several spyware and anti virus software loaded
to use...where one misses it, surely the other will find it.
Here is a list of good programs...
Norton
AVG by Grisoft ----> http://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5
(Go to bottom of page to find download area...also offers a free Firewall
download.)
Ad Aware
PC Bug Doctor
Registry Mechnic
Good Luck...
