Users browsing the Internet using Quarterdeck s products won t have to worry about transferring an infected file from the Internet onto their PCs. The fear of downloading infected files has caused some users to avoid taking full advantage of the Internet. In addition, virus definition updates for users are easily available from Symantec s online services, Ward added. We want users of InternetSuite to feel safe navigating the Internet, and Norton AntiVirus will offer a powerful layer of protection for people downloading software from the Internet s many resources. The Norton AntiVirus SDK will allow us to build automatic virus security into the suite, instead of simply including an external scanner that users will have to remember to run, said Suzanne Dickson, director of Internet client products for Quarterdeck.
