Hi GEP, sorry - been away from the PC (under mein fuhrer's orders!).

I think I may have found the solution thru Skype's forum as follows:

To stop the Norton Worm warning for Skype from continually appearing please try the following:

Open Norton Anti-Virus program -> Select “Options”-> Select “Internet Worm Protection” -> Select “Program Control” -> look for “Skype” in the list of programs -> click on Skype once -> click “Remove” ->Select “Yes” -> Select “OK” -> Close Norton.

Next time you start Skype or update or reload the program, Norton will detect Skype as a worm invasion. Simply click “OK” and you will not get anymore notifications.

HTH,

TEk
