About Norman Security Suite

What is Norman Security Suite?

Norman Security Suite (NSS) is a software security package made up

from three different security applications:

• Virus & Spyware Protection

•Personal Firewall

• Parental Control

Norman Security Suite is ready for use once you’ve installed it. The

default configuration settings provide the protection you need, and you

don’t have to run through the configuration options to make the

program operational. However, it’s useful to have a perception of how

things work and familiarize yourself with the basic functions.

This manual aims at pointing out certain useful features and provide

some hints on how to get the most out of the program.

Note that you must run a wizard before you can start using the Personal

Firewall and the Parental Control. Please refer to page 39 and page 45

respectively for more information.

Virus & Spyware Protection

This antivirus program monitors your PC for malicious software, also

referred to as malware. Malware is viruses, worms, trojans and other

varieties of unwanted code. Spyware is not destructive like traditional

viruses, but the consequences of revealing personal information

inadvertently could be just as damaging. Norman’s unique Sandbox

provides proactive protection that identifies even unknown viruses.

Ö For more information on Norman’s Sandbox, refer to page 56.

Viruses can be automatically removed from hard disks, removable

media, email attachments, etc.

The Virus & Spyware Protection application checks files when they are

accessed, and possible viruses are removed automatically.

Since we encourage users to perform manual scans of the machine, you

can choose Norman’s screen saver which also starts a virus scan when
