let me look into this tomorrow at the office, if you can wait.
We've had several clients with viruses that do similar things. One of our clients got a virus all it did was inflate every file (in size) it could attach to until the hard drive was full.
The reason Norton didn't see it, is that many viruses,worms and trojan horses look for files, registry settings that reference Norton, NAV, etc. and then if they see it, they modify the Windows Registry and disable Norton.
Most good virus writers :-) will focus on beating Norton and Outlook/Outlook Express. Their the easiest targets.
I'll check with our antivirus vendor tomorrow.
