About Reputation Scan
Reputation Scan provides information on the
trust-worthiness of all programs and running processes
on your computer. It helps you detect the files that are
suspicious or vulnerable on your computer using the
reputation-based threat detection. Norton Internet
Security lets you run different types of Reputation Scan
and detect suspicious programs on your computer.
Reputation Scan filters the files on the basis of certain
filtering criteria and performs an Insight Network
Scan on the filtered files. Reputation Scan filters the
files as reputation files. It filters .exe files, .scr files,
.sys files, .dll files, .drv files, .ocx files, .loc files, and
.msi files and analyzes these files.

Security performs an Insight Network Scan. When
Norton Internet Security performs an InsightNetwork
Scan, it also performs a Computer Scan. Norton
