Greetings Chris,

It sounds like you've been infected with the SoBig virus (although Norton has removed it for
you). Unfortunately this virus spreads through e-mail, so when you receive it, Norton will
remove it for you automatically (and your virus definitions appear to be up-to-date, although
you may want to run LiveUpdate from within Norton Antivirus just to be sure). You can just
click OK to these messages, as Norton is protecting your PC and you shouldn't have anything
to worry about.

Eventually the virus will die down and it won't be as prevalent -- it'll take a few more
months however.
