Update your virus signatures first by going to your anti-virus program maker's homepage or there may be a function inside the program to do that automatically, look for an update button. This is free if your anti-virus program is less than a year old or if you have renewed your subscription within the last year. If it's older, you need to pay an annual subscription fee (usually under US / Canadian) to enable the download of new signatures files as they are released. Once this is done your anti-virus program will fix any viruses on your system. If you want to buy the latest Norton AntiVirus software.
