Also, do you get a message where it is finding it? Click on options when you call it up and click on it in the History listing. It sounds as though it is finding the malware but not that it is installed. For example, it could be coming as an attachment on some email you are being bombarded with. The fact that Norton has found and quarantined or deleted it has probably kept it from ever infecting your computer.
Example of a possible scenario (happening to my wife's computer over the past three days):
You are on the address list of someone whose computer is infected or being attacked.
Email with mal-attachments are being sent/forwarded to you on a regular basis; and will continue to happen until that computer is cleaned up and properly filters its forwards.
So day after day, Norton intercepts the attachments, deletes/quarantines the file, and notifies you of what it has done.
