This teddy bear virus is an old virus hoax; it's been out for several years.
If you delete the bear, you'll have to contact Norton on how to fix what you
did by deleting the file. You should be able to get the information on this
virus from the Norton website.
In the future, always go to the Norton site to verify if something is a
virus or not. If they don't have a fix (they usually do), they will have
information about the virus in question.
