  534. SARC has equipped Norton AntiVirus with a new feature called 
  535. "Infestation Mode."  If a large number of new or unknown viruses 
  536. is found on the system during a scan, Norton AntiVirus will 
  537. automatically enable its highest level of detection.  This gives 
  538. users the most comprehensive protection in cases where a viral 
  539. infestation may have been detected.  If you would like to disable
  540. this feature, you can do so by following these instructions:
  541.  
  542. 1. Create a text File called NAVEX15.INF in your Norton AntiVirus
  543.    directory,e.g., C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus. If this file
  544.    already exist go to step two.
  545.  
  546. 2. Place the following lines in this File on the left-hand margin:
  547.  
  548. [NAVW32]
  549. infestmode=0
  550.  
  551. [NAVDX]
  552. infestmode=0
  553.  
  554. 3. Save the File.
  555.  
  556.  
  557. Additional information regarding this virus definitions update can be
  558. found in UPDATE.TXT and TECHNOTE.TXT.
