254119 2004-07-21 10:13:00 I have been having a problem in IE in that when I click on certain short cuts the page comes with object moved and a clickable link. Mainly on trademe site, click on link it goes to a page saying you cant enter.
Thought it was just a trademe thing but when I click look at security alert flashing on Norton AV it now comes up with object moved page
Searched f1 no luck. I have MS IE ver 6. w98se.
Thanks for any help

254122 2004-08-16 22:00:00 Still cant find out what is causing problem.
MS help mentions it but the fixes are only for XP.
I f none here can help looks like I will have to buy XP. Bit of a bugger I liked W98SE.
Is it possible my computer is the only one in the world with this problem?
Thanks

That's quite a sweeping statement metla, perhaps even a gross overstatement . I have used various editions of NAV for over six years now and never had a problem that wasn't caused by my own stupidity . I have had a couple of virus scares, but never been infected and NAV has caught everything that tried to sneak past the defences .

I am cautious not to make that sound as sweeping as your comment comparing it to a virus, but millions of users around the world also use it without problems and rely on it to protect their computers . It is a matter of personal preference in my opinion, and a crappy, badly maintained system full of obsure programs may well balk once in a while regardless of the AV choice .

It does nothing to enhance your credibility as an IT professional, and personally speaking it would make me shy away from using or recommending the services of a person who uses such extravagant language .

What do you say to customers who request that NAV be installed as their preferred AV solution?

Have a look here (service1.symantec.com) Ted. You will need to adjust the settings in Norton, but first try to disable the ad blocker and see if the web page loads correctly.

254127 2004-08-16 22:49:00 Excuse me?

Tell me your IT background then??

Does nothing for my credability indeed,I remove viruses and work on machines running nortons daily,When it causes problems they can be major,when its not causing problems its still a (extreme)rersource hog that takes a fair amount of control from the user and sinks its claws in all over the machine .

As to millions using it? . . . who cares,they know no better,look at the billions using Internet Explorer .


And yes,i flat out refuse to sell it,stock it or recomend it .


The "cons" outweigh the "pro's" of that software by a hundred to one .




I pity the fool .
