WinMX is also a good file sharing program that doesn't have spyware.

Thats an oxymoron. File sharing, no spyware.

Norton sucks.
Fully updated it didn't find anything, 5 minutes later I scan with panda and it finds 5.

Ever tried uninstalling norton? You should just try. It's even worse when you have 2 virus scanners installed.
