for future use....comman problem is not having the antivirus uptodate. with nortons (and a few others) you MUST run liveupdate to get all the updates. not all the updates will be automaticly downloaded (with the autoupdater)and can cause the antivirus not to work properly.

238871 2004-05-24 13:15:00 Wow! The things u learn on this site. Ive been relying on autoupdate for six months! Why the H dont they tell you to use live update as well as the auto.
How often should I do this? Weekly?

Thanks heaps guys

238872 2004-05-25 00:16:00 its an old problem with nortons, semi fixed with 2003-2004 vers.

what i do is to simply set the autoupdate to notify you that there are new updates out. then you go and use liveupdate which will get the program pdates as well as the AV updates.

most AV companies have new virus defs out each week (usually on a certain day) so yes updateing once a week would be good.
