Anyway, from what I've heard the chance of getting a virus is like 1 in a 5 000 000 chance. And I've only heard like half a dozen people ever got it and now systems DO have the BIOS completely separate. I haven't heard from it in over eight years anyway so it doesn't really matter.I can't tell what you're talking about here.
So, you can download a FREE virus protector, but why should the makers hand it out for free? They make no profit out of it...?Because either they're generous people who don't want to make money out of a little program but will willingly accept donations, or the free version is a more limited version of a larger product they're trying to promote.

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Valve technical support.
Current Norton Antivirus is generating a false positive for a Trojan virus in all Source games after the last Source update. We have contacted Symantec and filled out all of the necessary documentation for them to update their virus definitions to resolve this issue.
Until their virus definitions are updated to recognize Source games as a non-threat, you much disable Norton Anti-virus in order to play a Source game. We apologize for this inconvenience. We expect Symantec to have this resolved in two to four business days.
