Norton Antivirus Help

Postby a1 » Sat Oct 06, 2007 10:01 am

I just started Norton Antivirus today and got an error saying that Norton Antivirus caould not be found because it was not installed or something. I didn't uninstall it or did i update it. Now all the services of Norton Anitivirus is gone and I can't scan incoming emails. What happened?

Norton Anti-Virus gone?... :o....?

...It's your lucky day!... [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]...!

In the past, I have had to Format my Hard Drive completely, just to get rid of all traces of it!!

Now try AVG Anti-Virus for Free....or something similar...Anything, other than Norton!....;)...!

F.... 8-)...!

The fact that Norton has evaporated into the ether, along with the other symptoms described in your other posts, suggests that Norton has done it's usual and missed something allowing an infection.

Suggestion AVG  ;D ;D
