The Norton Power Eraser tool is only compatible with computers running Microsoft Windows operating systems. It does not work with computers running on WinPE, Mac OS X, Android devices, and iOS devices.
Norton AntiVirus 11 also includes the ability to scan within compressed or archived files, such as Time Capsule volumes. Operating requirements call for Mac OS X Tiger. 56 A PowerPC or an Intel Core processor, 128 MB of RAM, and 100 MB of free hard disk space are also required.
- Overall, Norton’s malware scanner is excellent — the full system scan detected all of my test malware without slowing down my PC, and the real-time protection blocked all of the malware samples I tried downloading. I also like that Norton offers several scanning options, including a quick and custom scan, and I found it very easy to.
- This has been going on for years.Third Party Software installation programs (Adobe Shockwave is most likely the culprit) install the stand alone Norton Security Scanner and add events to the Windows task scheduler and the program cannot be removed/uninstalled by any normal Windows or Norton uninstall method (if somehow removed it 'magically' reappears after the next reboot).
Norton Power Eraser is a free virus removal tool that can be downloaded and run to remove malware and threats from your computer. You don't need to install this tool.
