I went away for a couple of days recently and over that time, had a call from me mum saying that Norton anti virus wasn't working, I told her it would be fine and that I'd sort it when I got back, I got in about half an hour ago to discover that Norton wasn't auto protecting, and that Norton Internet Security (firewall) had been disabled. I have no clue how this happened seeing as mum only uses the PC to play cards and do shopping.
Help me please
(Also, it says that I don't have the administative rights to change any of the settings, even tho I am system admin and I installed the bastard thing :mad: )

My problem was that i had a a big virus thing that shut off all my security and screwed the computer! :nervous:
Anyway sounds like a virus or a trojan that dont want you to do nothing i sugest you:
>boot up in safe mood
>Remove norton!
>install new stuff
Grab the latest AVG and install it in safe mode, scan the whole bastard thing. Also, update Norton if you feel like it.
I ran live update and get 2 new updates patches, restarted and everything seems to be working fine. *touch wood*
I was forced to install it a couple of years back with a legitimate purchased game. I think it was with American McGee's "Alice".
Get rid of that fucker. It's leakier than, um... a very leaky thing. And it's often acused of having integrated spyware. I never install it after it managed to jock up everything once.
God tell me a bout it like i said f***** up my computer once costed a ton to get it fixed :banghead:
