Norton 360 - Scanning thumbdrives

Question

Norton 360 has two main scan options: Quick Scan or Full Scan. Do either of these scan thumbdrives or external hard drives? I know it is possible to scan the external drives by choosing custom scan, but I do not want to have to do that every time.

Answer 1

It took me a few seconds at most to locate these two threads on the Symantec forum:

• External hard drives scanned during Full System Scans?

• Does Norton 360 scan all my disks

Clearly the answer is Yes, a full scan does scan external drives as well.
