Symantec's processing mechanism:
1. Quarantine-Files with viruses were moved to quarantine. At this time, the virus can't cause harm, and it is completely isolated. Only Norton antivirus programs can access these quarantined files, and users can restore and delete them in the quarantine area.
2. Repair-the virus has been completely identified, and Symantec and its product Norton can successfully separate and remove the virus code in the file and keep the normal file;
3. Delete-The file with virus code has been deleted by Norton and will no longer be recoverable;
4. No operation-Norton can't do any operation on the file with virus, mainly because the virus program is running, and the process is the key process of the system, so it is impossible to finish antivirus by stopping the process.
