All comments about ccsetmgr.exe: doesn't use a lot of memory but still doesn't seem to be dangerous (althought it doesn't seems that a its needed)   ggm Norton Internet Security ?   JQ It is trying to access the internet by itself, it knows my log on tel number, ID and password. My firewall stoped it 3 times, on the 4th it passed it and was dialing out/logging on and the only way to stop it is to disconect the phone line   Alan It's not "spyware"- it's Norton- Leave it.   This is Symantec Settings Manager, and can be found in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\ccSetMgr.exe"   Omar El Fakih Uses 4k memory on my machine. By 2008 we'll have to have a 256mb stick of ram just for norton and it'll be running about a hundred processes in the background. I have a gig of memory but I just hate wasting it for nothing.   SuperPi Norton AV 2005 (aucun problème) Symantec   Pascal It's Symantec NAV. There's nothing to worry about.   Dusan it's not dangerous, but anyoing if you're also running avast! - when avast can't establish an internet connection, for what reason ever, ccsetmgr.exe is using up almost 90% of the CPU power and takes about 10min to get your pc under control again   sm Part of Symantec Norton Internet Security suite  See also: Link   Georg is absolut ungefährlich   it's part of Norton antivirus   DC the MCSE Symantec Norton 2005 " It is used for automatic update" Not Dangerous   GcNetSpeed I don't know if it is dangerous, just that it starts up whenever my system is idle and runs the Cpu up and uses a lot of memory, preventing my hard drive from going idle or timing out. This program will put more wear on my CPU fan than burning DVDs because it runs all day every day when my system is idle!   Annoyed Symantec Settings Manager   Joe Smith all i know is it wasnt on my pc when i got it 2 weeks ago. i checked last week didnt see it. then this past few days my pc is really slow internally and on the web. i do not and never have installed norton on this pc. for sure   aceclose Mine shows up in Task Manager in all caps.. Is it the legit process or a virus pretending to be the legit process?   anthony i agree with alan this maybe to do with norton, but a virus can name any thing it likes into taskmanager   ace close this is merely a background program . however must to handle NAV . keep it on . cah cover more of ur RAM ,if NAV facing problems .   Manoj I totally agree with SuperPi, i just want to know what exactly it does, and if its really necessary to run nav correctly.   Ceto Norton puts too much shit on your system. Keep it simple.   J. Tull If you have a small amount of RAM you do not want this running in the background, Also will cause Disk Defragmenter and ScanDisk to fail.   Fred It is assigned High Priority by my administrator account, not by system   Rob C UserImages.bmp   wont let nav download,hard to remove when affected by a virus   irwin It belongs to either NIS or NAV of Symantec. But there seems to be some problem in the NIS2006, because its using a lot RAM and is causing system crashes. When i debugged the NIS2006 i found that it doesn't seem to startup at all. And hence causes the system crashes. Folks if you are about to install NIS2006 then i would suggest that you uninstall NIS2005 or earlier from the add/remove program or goto the following link to get the removal tools.   Mike Black Part of Norton Antivirus. If it causes any problems and you are running multiple antivirus programs on your PC, remember choose the program you prefer and only run ONE antivirus, this avoids any problems (Does not include online scanning programs, such as Panda, etc.   Norton IS settings manager / if this is on your machine and you dont have norton it is because at somepoint in the PCs life it HAS had norton on it but the un-installation hasnt removed this proccess, goto Symantec website and search NISremoval tool and download, this will eradicate ALL norton files off PC otherwise leave it..PS NIS 2006 only uses 10% of my Ram which is nothing (50Mb)   Snadge its norton, but sooo annoying. i should get rid of norton, but i paid for it, and it does its job, but clogs yor comp up with loads of stuff you dont need.   roosta norton antivirus is a big waste of memory and a waste of utility: TAKE AVG its free and better ans more efficient!   Makkak It's part of Norton allright   Forest Blades its you antivirus"norton" let it do his job   ConoR This file using more RAM and virtual memory also. Therefore System responding slow. it is using 14MB of RAM   Raghuveer Singh If you have Norton Antivirus installed, don't worry about this.   Motoma Ghost 10 loaded and no other Norton product   Buzz Uses Lots of memory it is however part of Norton Internet Security runs at about 19k   Joe Norton. AVG free is a pathetic escuse for a good antivirus.   Ohnothatidoitagain it has a virus   Settings Manager for Symantec & Norton products including AntiVirus / AntiSpyware  See also: Link   Block I think many here are missing the point. You can't just look at the file name and decide good or bad. You have to consider the source/location. Just as the NOTE says above: If a "non-Microsoft" file is located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder, then there is a high risk for a virus, spyware, trojan or worm infection! THe Symantec/Norton version of this file should rightly be located in Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\... If it's in Windows\System32, it's likely the TROJAN.   Dave B If you know more about ccsetmgr.exe, share your knowledge and help other users.
