Why would I have this Kit in my search area. From what you tell me it for people who write programs and such. Right?

Hi
A S oftware Development Kit (SDK or "devkit") is typically a set of software development tools that allows for the creation of software programs and applications.

Then this program I guess you would call it shows up with a lot of programming language. It appears to be corrections or changes to the Norton virus protection programs. It is a couple of pages of programming language on everything that relates to Norton. I guess I should just remove this from my Programs and Files. I have no ideal how it got there. It was done in November 2013.

Not sure what you mean by "in my search area"?
