Have been experiencing problems with my pc since switching on yesterday when a message popped up to say "Some Symantec product settings have been changed by an unauthorized program". I have Norton Internet Security 2003 installed and the message went on to recommend I uninstalled and then reinstalled it. I did this with a great deal of difficulty due to constant crashing. However only antivirus is now present with the firewall being disabled and no option to turn it back on. I have run a virus scan using the downloaded norton checker but nothing was found.
I am using Windows ME with IE6 although some sites needing secure connection advise that I am on IE5 and should update to the latest encrypted version. About IE confirms version is 6.0.
Whilst my pc is definitely more stable several things, including the above, are not operating correctly. Windows update refuses to scan for updates indicating that a problem has occurred. The symantec website refuses to load up its online support assistant so I cannot report my problems to them. I have been told that flash player is needed although I already have the latest version of flash.
Has anyone else experienced such problems or can anyone suggest a likely cause?
Thanks
