  Step 2:  Enhanced Features

Norton AntiVirus 2003's enhanced technology automatically removes viruses, worms, and Trojan horses from your system.
  Step 3:  Email

Open a Report
Norton AntiVirus scans and cleans both incoming and outgoing email messages as they are sent.

New virus definitions are automatically downloaded free for a year to protect against new viruses. After one year of free virus definition updates, an annual subscription service is available online for subsequent updates.
