Question: I have Norton Antivirus 2005 and SpySweeper (latest version) install on my Windows XP SP2 system.
The Norton "Alerts" log shows numerous attempts by SpySweeper to scan certain files, to which Norton responds by blocking access.
These attempts occur every two or three minutes and last about one second. During that second there are 15 to 20 attempts, all blocked.
Is this impeding my computer's performance? Is this reducing the effectiveness of SpySweeper? Does Norton's spyware protection equal or exceed SpySweeper?
