GeneralSerious Warning to Norton Anti-Virus Users Pin

If you are using Norton Anti-Virus 2001/2002, and your operating system is Windows 2000 or Windows Xp, and your programming IDE is Visual C++ 6.0, please be warned that you might lose your hard work with a mysterious reason.

Usually, if you are using above listed products together, you will frequently get this error message while programming, "Cannot save file, the file is being used by other applications.".

It is OK if it happens when you are on the code editor, it can be solved by simply save the file again, so it dosen't hurt much, although annoying.

But, a big BUT here, if at the exact moment you are using class wizard, one of your files will be permanently deleted by Norton Anti-Virus from your disk, it could be either the .h or .cpp of the class you were manipulating using class wizard, usually the .cpp. That deletion is permanent, there is absolutely no way to recover that file from disk. If you close Visual C++ now, you lose that file forever, it could be a project that you've been working on for weeks.

Solutions? Well, there are a few, from my personal experiences:

1, Once that happens, calm down. Firstly check on hard disk see if the file is deleted, if it is, immediately use your Visual C++'s "File view" feature and find that file in file list, that is possible because Visual C++ keeps files in memory event after they're deleted from disk, unless it requires the memory space for something else. If the file still exists in "file view", open it, copy all source code to clip-board, create a new file on disk and paste the contents from clip-board, congratulations, it's back.

2, Do not use Norton Anti-Virus on Windows 2000 or Windows Xp. The bug does not exist on Windows 98/ME.

3, Well, this is my personal opinion and CodeProject.com does not hold and responsibility for this, simply stay away from Norton Anti-Virus. And no, turning "Auto protect" off does NOT help.

Hope this info helps.
