Uh guys, I have Norton System works, which includes Norton Utilities, and
there is no re-format program on NU.... I think there is a website that
follows and tracks bogus virus alerts... don't know what the exact URL is,
but I think you can bring it up in any major search engine. Please check
out this page before sending these alerts out again. Thanks...
