Norton AV: "System Status: Urgent attention&q
« on: July 04, 2004, 03:26:06 AM »
For a couple of days now, I've had a trojan of some sort always changing my homepage.  I installed a number of programs to do sth about this, but with no success (Adaware, Spysweeper, Hijack Blaster).

I also have Norton AV on my PC, and it came to my attention there seems to be a problem here.  In Norton, the system status shows 'Urgent Attention', and the security scanning features as well as the virus definition service all show 'Error'.  There seems to be no way I can fix this.  I just renewed my Norton subscription, but I somehow cannot complete any of the suggested procedures to enter my subscription key.  I tried everything the Norton website suggests, but nothing seems to work.  The only thing I didn't try is uninstalling and re-installing Norton AV, because that seems a bit drastic.  Any suggestions?

I suggest you install and run both programs.
