** Additional Information **
**********************************************************************
SARC has equipped Norton AntiVirus with a new feature called
"Infestation Mode." If a large number of new or unknown viruses
is found on the system during a scan, Norton AntiVirus will
automatically enable its highest level of detection. This gives
users the most comprehensive protection in cases where a viral
infestation may have been detected. If you would like to disable
this feature, you can do so by following these instructions:
1. Create a text File called NAVEX15.INF in your Norton AntiVirus
directory,e.g., C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus. If this file
already exist go to step two.
2. Place the following lines in this File on the left-hand margin:
[NAVW32]
infestmode=0
[NAVDX]
infestmode=0
3. Save the File.
Additional information regarding this virus definitions update can be
found in UPDATE.TXT and TECHNOTE.TXT.
