Weird issue with Norton Internet Security
ADVERTS
Not on MY computer at least, this is a laptop I've been asked to diagnose, Windows XP Home. Norton Internet Security 2005 shows a red X in the taskbar, and any of the settings screens come up completely blank. I have searched for this issue and only found something about reinstalling windows scripting. Already scanned it for virii and spyware, everything is clean.
Anybody solved this one before? What can I do?My dogs http://www.pepper.net/ & http://www.graci.org/ - for sale: http://www.stretchovision.com/

It sounds like you need to uninstall and reinstall Norton. If you do this make sure you do a complete uninstall from the registry as well.

Take a look at these to see if they help.

P.S. The XP firewall & pop-up tools are crap and will leave you vulnerable and will disable some much needed features as well. Disable all the XP provided tools and stick with the Norton.

Yeah, thanks, but I had already tried all that too. Originally Posted by charper1

All other things being equal I tend to go with the one that is simpler and cheaper.
