| Norton Security Scan Helps Everyday Internet Users Search for Online Threats |
"Offering Norton Security Scan through the Google Pack is the perfect way to reach the everyday Internet home user," said Rowan Trollope, vice president, engineering, consumer business unit, Symantec. "Our goal is to provide Internet users everywhere with a powerful and easy-to-use tool to help them evaluate, understand threats that may reside on their PCs and subsequently remove these threats quickly and efficiently." At the click of a button, users who download Norton Security Scan can either run a full scan of their system or run a QuickScan, which is a fast scan of the areas of their computer that are most likely to be targeted by viruses. Norton Security Scan automatically receives regular detection updates, so it can effectively detect the latest virus and spyware threats. In addition, the tool features an easy-to-use interface which simplifies the process of scheduling weekly or on-demand scans. Norton Security Scan provides the complete and thorough scan and removal capabilities available with Norton's award winning Norton AntiVirus and Norton Internet Security.

Users will never miss out on new features in their favorite programs because the included Google Updater keeps them up to date.
