    My firewall detects trojan intrusion attempts

    But my antivirus never finds a trojan.

    I am using Norton Security.

    So.. what is up with this?

      I hate Norton

      Have you run updated copies of AdAware and Spybot?

      What anti-virus program are you using? AVG anti-virus is free and has served me well for 3 or 4 years now.

          Most likely just random port scans and worms looking for open ports. As long as your patched you should be fine.

              Your probably right.

              The firewall just uses a default intrusion message for every paticular port that gets scanned.

                Since July I have had no less then 400 trojan/spyware programs blocked using norton security.

                If the antivirus doesn't catch it, then the firewall reports when it attempts to access the internet.

                Paranoid? I think not..

                  Thats total bullshit those programs display.They block connections from sites when you surf websites and tell you it's a trojan.Also portscans and other harmless crap.

                  If you'd have a little knowledge you wouldn't use such a useless app.

                    Norton is useless against trojans and adware.

                    Get Spybot or Adware or Trojan Hunter.

                    For Antivirus get AVS, Norton Firewall is fairly decent but the antivirus is just crap.

                      What the fuck ever.. I lost a fucking ton of work/content on a computer some trojan hacker got into.

                      I feel more comfortable using this WORTHLESS FUCKING APP.

                        I use spyware and Adware along with norton antivirus and norton firewall.

                        I am amazed how many different adware related files each program finds on it's own.

                        I'll check into Trojan Hunter as well.

                                  I might add, got so many scammer's and spammer's on this board the one telling you that's crap might be the one trying 2 get into your computer.
