It can be hard to explain to the general public exactly what Virus Software does. I always imagined it as a sort of gentle brush that swept away the crap, kind of like a beneficial vacuum cleaner.

After all, take a look at Norton Fighter in action!

The official page for the Norton Fighter features even more videos and ass kicking for your viewing pleasure.
