get rid of kazaa and download a free av if you dont want to pay for one
if you dont have the cd to reinstall norton did it come with your os or your computer |

Cant help you make a illegal copy of a program work here. But as lobos said there lots of free programs out there.
here are some links www.grisoft.com www.freeav.com www.avast.com if you have kazaa your probly loaded with spyware so get adaware and spybot There is also kazaabegone at www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn (be sure to read the warning first becaus it has a bug in it.) |

Look at the CD's that came with your PC, maybe its there. But 2k2 is pretty old and your probly better off with one of the free ones.

Norton
Does Norton come with XP when you install it?

norton has nothing to do with XP. But sometimes companies like dell include it in their recovery disks.

I have had excellent results with Panda anti-virus platinum 7.
It updates virus definitions automatically, and recently updated their software automatically as well. cheers, ~pawprint~ |

personaly, I like NOD32, it uses almost no recourses, has lots of updates, a very good heuristic and is the only AV not to miss a in the wild virus in professional tests in the last 5 years. Panda is good but it gives you no control over whats happens if a virus is found(it deleted leaktest without even asking me). Kaspersky is also very good, they have updates every 3 hours.
