I dont know about attacks but I do get frequent pings from DNS servers owned by comcast.

Im alot more concearned about the firewall(s) than the virus protection. Still I paid good money for a years subscription and now I dont have any working VP.

Edit; Update I have it all working again. Had to find all mentions of Symantec & Norton in the registry and search "all files" in safe mode and delete them. Run the norton removal tool (again). Restart in normal mode and run the install routine again.

Funny thing is Symanted changed my subscription to 522 days when I only paid for a year. Its the least they could do
