The Symantec site offers two scans – a security checker and a virus scanner. Both use ActiveX, so you need to have Internet Explorer running. The security scan checks that you're running an anti-virus program and then looks for Windows vulnerabilities, hacker risks and Trojan horses (when it works). The anti-virus checker performs a deep scan and takes a considerable amount of time to complete. It won't remove any infections it finds, but will suggest actions
that you can take.
