The bottom right of the Windows taskbar. A small up arrow near the clock is circled in red, and the box that opens above it shows a yellow Norton icon, also circled in red.

  1. Look at the bottom-right corner of the screen, next to the clock. Click the small up arrow (^). This shows icons that are hidden.
  2. Click the yellow Norton icon. If you can already see the Norton icon beside the clock, just click it.
  3. In the Norton window, click Scans, then Run Quick Scan. If you do not see Scans, click Security first.
  4. Wait for it to finish. Leave the computer on until Norton says the scan is done.

Norton looks a little different on each computer. If yours does not match this picture, call us and we will walk you through it.
