Before the clean up, I could not connect to the Norton update service, and this continues. When trying to go to their sites, my browser is giving a "site not found" error. I'm not finding anything that says sasser leaves this lasting effect after it's removed. Thoughts? Ideas?

Go to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC
and find the "HOSTS" file. It's the one that's bigger than 1 k. Make a
copy of it for backup. Double click it to bring up the "Open With.."
window. Choose notepad to open it, then delete every line except
"127.0.0.1 localhost". Save it.
Good luck
