At least every 10mins a small box in the bottom right of my screen pops up saying norton has detected a downloader, this happens at least every 20mins and it cant be the same thing because norton says it has fixed that problem and my pc is secure, then another one comes. They are all 'downloader' viruses, I have AVG,Avast,Norton,Adaware and SpybotS+D yet norton is the only one picking these repeating threats up, anybody know how I can stop this thing coming back?

Running more than one antivirus program is not advisable. They can flag each other as malware and eventually corrupt all of them. Chose the antivirus product you want and uninstall the others. If you choose to keep Norton, remove the AVG antivirus and AVAST. Chances are that those programs are trying to download updates to their own virus definitions databases and Norton is blocking them.
Adaware and Spybot S%26D are okay since they are antispyware programs as opposed to antivirus.
See the Norton page below regarding the dangers of actively running more than one antivirus product.
