Norton Anti-Virus Puzzleand successfully installed it. I set it up to run each day, starting at 3 am. First day it detected 2 "dialer" files, and I was able to delete them easily, following the directions provided by NAV-2005. Second day, and every day since then, it has detected a "threat" and identified that threat as IEGator.dll and described it as an adware program. Following the NAV-2005 directions to delete it, the software then reports that it cannot find IEGator.dll anywhere on my system. I have used the MS search function to look for a file by that name, and have been unsuccessful in finding it. I have been in email contact with NAV-2005 tech support, but all I get back are script responses that do not address the matter. Has anyone here encountered this puzzle before? Is this file really a threat to something? Any idea what is going on? Any suggestions to get rid of that file, if it is really there - or to stop NAV from reporting that it has been detected when it can't find it? It is a real puzzle to me, and any insight would be appreciated. -- ---------- CWLee Former slayer of dragons; practice now limited to sacred cows.
