Run norton anti virus 06 full system scan on xp sp2 weekly for over a year.
Used to get about 85000 files scanned. Went to 95000 a month ago and ilast
Friday nights scan hit 135000 files counted and took over 3 hours to run.
All temp files were deleted, as well as norton protected. Also deleted ie
history prior to re-running the scan. This decreased the count by 5000, but
still getting about 35000 extra files than I did not have just a month ago
and no idea where they are coming from. All the xp updates from 4/10-11 were
installed. All Norton can recommend is running the scan in safe mode. No
new programs other than an updated flash player from a Walgreens photo cd
have been installed. Using the find files utility has not been helpful.
Spyware Doctor and Norton indicate no virus or spyware. Anyone got a clue?
