This is a common virus that renames notepad.exe in your
...windows/system32 folder to something else and replaces it with a
bogus version of notepad.exe.
If all Norton did was delete the bogus version in the system32 folder,
you can probably find a good version (about 65kb) of notepad.exe is
also in your main "windows" folder... if it is there, copy it to the
system 32 folder and see if notepad now works...
Good luck!
