Attack a machine with Norton antivirus

No really, not at all. Norton is VERY secure!
 
What is the IP address of the machine :-)
 
Seriously, that's like asking "Is it possible to attack Carcassonne"
(OK, maybe more like some village with a wattle and daub rampart, in the
case of Norton) in the middle ages. It's always possible to attack, and
if you know of a weakness the defenders haven't covered, it's possible
for the attack to succeed.
 
NIS is not generally considered the gold standard of client-side
protection:
