Q: Norton Antivirus-Is my computer still protected against viruses if I disable Email Scanning?
A:
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this.
