It certainly is. I get at least one virus email per day and Nortons grabs
them all. Unfortunately when Norton's issued a warning about Bugbear
on October the 1st, I had updated my virus definitions a little
earlier. Bugbear immobilized the firewall and both Nortons virus
checker and the ability to update virus definitions. It took me two
days to struggle out of the mire.

Nortons detected this latest as well!!!!
