Protecting your files and data 129 About the Norton AntiVirus scans Symantec rates a file based on the statistical evaluation that is done on the file using the Norton Community Watch data and Symantec's analysis. Symantec assigns the following confidence levels to reputation files: Good Symantec has a high indication that the file is trusted. Unproven Symantec does not have enough information about the file to assign a trust level to the file. The file is neither safe nor unsafe. Poor Symantec has a few indications that the file is not trusted. This file is suspicious and can harm your computer. Bad Symantec has a high indication that the file is not trusted. This file is suspicious and can harm your computer. When the Reputation Scan is complete, you can view the summary of the scan results in the Norton Reputation Scan window. You can view the reputation information such as the file name, trust level, age of the file, stability rating, and community usage for each file. The trust level determines whether a file is safe or unsafe. If a file has Poor or Bad trust level, Norton AntiVirus lets you quarantine the file.
