    Bloohound.Exploit.196 seems to be a lo-spread, lo-threat exploit that targets your Acrobate Reader.

    That is, if you have it at all. It appears that Bloohound.Exploit.196 is a false positive in Symantec's virus detection. Symantec even keeps popping Bloohound warnings on Jezus' own homepage which we all know is guaranteed malware free.

    Looks like they fuzzled their definitions again at Norton, which means that you probably never had this exploit anyway. And yes indeed, Norton is the worst God-awful crap ever invented, which is why Bill Gates made it the standard anti-mal for every Windows install. Having experienced Vista, I suppose we all see the logic now.

    Which in turn means that you should delete Norton with extreme prejudice, install FF with AdBlock and live happily ever after.
