Norton Security Scan is a Free Anti Virus Scanner made by Symantec. This Virus Scanner can be used to ensure your PC is protected from common threats. It does so by scanning your computer to identify any viruses, worms, spyware, adware or trojans that reside on your PC. Detected infections could then be removed to disinfect your PC.
