Windows Users and Norton Antivirus

Please note that as of May 6 2015, Norton Antivirus has incorrectly flagged Zyzzyva as suspicious for Windows users. As such, Norton users must train the antivirus software to ignore the folder where Zyzzyva lives (which is either C:\Program Files\NASPA Zyzzyva 3.0.3 or C:\Program Files (x86)\NASPA Zyzzyva 3.0.3, on Windows). Here is a good summary of how you to do so: http://antivirus.about.com/od/securitytips/ht/excludefilesfromnorton.htm

Here is a procedure used by one user to correct the Norton issue:

  4. Select "Quarantine" from drop-down menu

  6. Click the folder icon to browse.
  7. Navigate to Program Files (x86)/NASPA Zyzzyva 3.0.3
  8. Select "naspa zyzzyva 3.0.3.exe" and click OK.

Zyzzyva should now be restored, and should not be quarantined by Norton in the future.

You may need to restore the program icon from the desktop shortcut at this point. To do so, follow these steps:
