Norton AV's having a paddy?
 

I've got Norton AV2004 on my system and occasionally when I click on the taskbar icon to check the settings, instead of the AV options appearing in the middle of the screen, the Dos screen flashes for a split second then...nothing.

Anyone got any ideas?

Scrap it off and get a better AV m8. Its just the name you pay for with norton and the fact that its the first AV that generally springs to mind when asked. There is a new problem related to norton more or less everyday on one or more of the forums i visit. Get rid of it.

and i would agree there as well , personally i use avast and kerio , never had a problem and they are free , norton is turning into expensive bloatware in my opinion :mad:

Nope. I've had Norton for about 4 years and it's been the best AV I've seen. Tried the others on free trial and never been too impressed.

Anyway I reinstalled it and everything seems fine now :)

Thanks anyway though :)

Are you sure it's not doing an auto update/install of latest AV definitions Russ? (That's what it sounds like to me)

It wasn't at the time, no.

Must say i have had no trouble with norton. Only had it a couple of months and it works perfect so far.
