Norton removing sailwave files

Long time user of sailwave, since the really early days. Never let me down, but this morning I could not get it to work on my PC.

Norton blocked it from running on detection of SONAR.PUA!gen5.

I completed a full system scan and there are no other problems on my PC.

I also performed a full uninstall of sailwave and downloaded the latest version from SAILWAVE.COM. The programme opened, but when I try to save anything the programme is closed down and Norton removes the .exe file and shortcut. Any ideas.

Personally I’m not a supporter of Norton - It causes more problems than it solves

The type of virus that is reporting as I understand is that it doesn’t detect any specific virus but thinks it might have one? Not very helpful in my opinion - Nortons’s suggestion is if you are sure it is clean then restore it from its vault.

Below is a report of a scan of the latest install by 55 different virus engines - All report it as clean so why Norton would decide otherwise you would have to take up with Norton. Personally I would move away from Norton
