When loading the Google and Teoma web pages (all other
sites are OK) I get a Norton AV Alert : Malicious script
detected! and I am given the file name C:\WINDOWS\system32
\-Embedding, which I cannot locate. Question: Do I (can I
safely) run the script (Norton advises against this option)
in order to keep the same message from appearing each time
I load the web pages?
 
This isn't normal operation. The message yes, for .vbs scripts. But why
would Google and Teoma in general cause/create this message? I use both and
can't say the same. In the meantime, check your system for the Winamp
virus. Good luck!

Thanks. As did the problem arrive, so did it disappear!
Was it just a momentary quirk - let's hope so.
