My email program is Outlook 2003. I've been getting them almost every day. I'm really tired of it. I pay for Norton every blasted year, at this point i've paid them hundreds of dollars, and yet, this crap still gets into my mailbox. As far as I can tell, the only thing Norton worries about my mail is whether or not it's spam. Yet no matter how many times I tell it something is, or is not, spam, it always gets that wrong too. Seems to be a useless peice of crap.
Today, like yesterday and the day before, I've had to stop, save the bloody attachment to my TOXIC folder, then ask norton to please scan the dam thing, and yes, sure enough, a virus! (W32 cridex - risk high) thank you very much.... Then spend much time on here farting around trying to find the right place to be, sign up, blah blah blah...
Used to be, if you were leery of an attachment that got in, you could have norton scan the thing, right there in your inbox. Why'd they stop that? Why am I paying for something that does not work? The only time Norton seems to catch a virus is one month before my subscription becomes due, then like yearly clockwork, aha! Guess that isn't a blatent call to re-up. . .
Norton seems to be the biggest scam going, ..and YES, the scan email IS turn ON. ..and no, I am NOT paying another 150 for "One" so that Norton will actually do something for me.
