Question Why is my Norton Antivirus reporting "Malicious Script Detected" when I try to install askSam from a CD-ROM?


Answer We have received a few reports of Norton Antivirus erroneously identifying our autoplay program on our installation cds as a malicious code. Please note that this is not a virus.




Resolution To work around this, you can explore the contents of your CD-ROM using Windows Explorer or through "My Computer" and find the file called "asksamsetup.exe" on the CD. Double-click this file to begin the askSam 6 installation.

"askSam is an essential part of my software tool chest. I can research and collect data from anywhere and any source. Once it is in askSam I can edit, rearrange, organize, and search the information easily. Then I can present it and make it totally useful for other people via the web or CD. Fantastic!"
