Probably coincidence. Norton didn't detect anything for me.

Uhm... I highly doubt Autodesk would weight their websites with viruses. You probably have a virus-infeted computer that's saying that Autodesk will threaten you. Autodesk is a huge corporation that very nearly has a monopoly of modeling software in the US (I think) and they'd (probably) go out of business if they virus-spammed their customers.

Quite confusing. Although, it may just be false warnings.

That's one of many reasons I don't use Norton anymore.

Although like Teancum said, it's coincidence. Autodesk is not infecting you. Something else is.

Every website I went to when I had Norton was listen as a virus.
I'd suggest getting something else.
