One of it's greatest features is that it doesn't scan unnecessary files, unlike most AV's.
It is connected to a ever growing database for known and trusted files.
It compares the hashes and if that particular file is fully trusted by the community and by Symantec, it won't scan the file again unless it has been altered.
(you can still chose to distrust a file that has been trusted by them, or trust a file that is either unknown or not trusted fully.)
Brilliant feature!
That's why every quick scan will go faster than the previous one.
With Norton 360 being updated for Win7 I am really pleased with it so far, not a resource hog as in the past, quick scans. This is not the same old bloatware no longer.
