I have just formated and reinstalled Win98 2nd edition because when it shuts down it tries to read the A: drive. It has not done this before. After the install, the problem was solved then in the procces of installing my other software the a: searchre appeard before final shutdown. What do I need to edit to solve this problem.
Any help will be appreciated

This answer assumes that you have installed Norton AntiVirus Software on your Win98 SE computer (the version i am using and describing the solution for is NAV 2000 (version 6.10.23) ):

Start NAV
Click on Options
Click on the plus Next to Auto-Protect
And highlight Advanced

Near the bottom you'll find a section for floppy disk Scans
-- Uncheck the one that says "Scan floppies for boot viruses when shutting down Windows"

click on OK
and close it out.

That will prevent the floppy disk scans at the end of each Windows session.

If you are running a different version of NAV, then it will probably have the same settings... you'll just have to find it (similar wording may be in a different location on the different flavors of NAV).
