Norton antivirus

i'm having a problem with my NAV. the auto protect will disable itself every second or third time i boot up my comp. and when i go to enable it is tells me to re-install the program. but the next time i boot up. everything loads fine. anyone have any ideas on what it could be?

 

just a glitch, it should be fine

 

if you got the copy Re install it

 

I'd say you have a trojan/virus thats messing with it.

 

i think antivirus programs are a conspiracy. i've never had one (only have used adaware) and have never had a virus (knocks on wood)

when i did tech support everyone that called in that obviously had a virus was using an updated version of norton or macaffee.

i'm also drunk tho.

 

drunk - welcome to the club

 

Yeah there is a known virus that does that. try and do a free scan at housecall.antivirus.com

 

i was about to say the same thing the other day

 

cool i'll give it a shot. thanks alot.

 

I work Tech support as well and find that sometimes AV programs are more trouble then they are worth. I was running Norton 2004 and just found it bogged my system down too much. Housecall and PCpitstop.com are two spots where you can do free ones.

Now Spyware...that's a different story...gotta have something for that
