Ok wtf? Help?
UMM today twice i my computer was attacked and attempted to get inside and my norton picked it up and dropped it and got it removed it also tracked the ip of the attacker. So me being smart googled the ip locator at Whats my ip adress.com or whatever and it came up with a company from Hong kong....? So i dont know if i should be laughing or i should be panicking cause my norton runs out in 20 days T.T

I would remove Norton and install AVG, Spybot Search and Destroy, and Malwarebytes. All of them are free and will take care of it.

They are good for being free, but I still prefer Norton 360 myself.

As far as security goes, Norton is decent if you are paying for it. The free version is pointless.
I dislike both because they take too much control of the PC, at least in my opinion. It can be a huge pain to delete Norton, too. Most versions leave chunks of themselves on your PC even after uninstalling.

I don't know why that happened with you, I've never had an issue with Norton like that before and I have successfully deleted it before as well without any problems.

Actually it hasn't happened to me, because I don't use Norton. It's just a common problem that a lot of people have trouble with. Especially because a lot of PCs come with Norton already installed. >_<

All you have to do is go into your hard drive and computer storage areas and wipe Norton off of it and then place firewalls on your computer and computer controls so people can't get in. Then upload new security such as what C.J. proposed and that should keep your computer safe
