Major Security Hole Found In Norton Anti-Virus

If you have Norton Anti-Virus as your security software protection, you have to read this…

According to BGR, a security researcher found a gaping hole in Norton Anti-Virus.  This vulnerability means that any hacker could send a specific coded file via email to any Windows, Linux, or Mac PC and successfully infect it.  The user did not need to even open the email, as once the malicious code is scanned, you’re infected.

The good news is, Norton has already begun fixing the problem.  If you are using Norton as your security protection, you need to run the Live Update Tool and install any updates available.
