My Norton AntiVirus program is telling me Tiggz Media Player and Calendar has a malicious script attached to it when I attempt to install. Can someone please advise. Thanks. Oh,also IconPackager pastes a unregistered icon locked on my screen with I go to open file ,but I did register it. What is happening? Email

Norton does give you that message when loading up some dx objects/scripts ... but you can safely click "continue"..

None of the stuff you download from here has anything in it to worry about...

For your Iconpackager problem, either wait for someone else to answer that, or email [email protected] ... or, visit the help and support threads, and post your problem there..


Hope that helped a bit

Norton and other virus scanners will say that just about any script is malicious.  It's almost impossible for these virus scanners to know if a script is safe or malicious so it reports that it is malicious just to be on the safe side.

Norton is the devil. It is so badly written these days that it's almost malicious.
