There not working eh. Hm, Goto start menu, then goto run, type in regedit. hit ok. Goto edit when in the regedit program, and goto find. Type in PINF or PINFI. this is a virus that rewrites .exe files only which stops them from working. Now if you do have it when it finds it, on the right colloum if its there, you'll see a file that says PINF or PINFI, right click on it and say delete. Afta this is done reboot the machine, now there are 6 different pinfi viruses out there, sometimes the .exe file will go back to normal. When booted up goto norton and if it fires up start a scan. This should find the .txt, or some other file that belongs with PINFI. Now if norton doesnt work, your going to have to search the net for a program that can delete norton's registry all at once. I've done it manually and it takes forever cause of going thru all of registry and going into the c: drive and looking for files that belongs with norton. Once norton is outta the computer, reinstall it and update it and start its scan.
