Hi mitch-c, Welcome and thanks for all of your comments re Symantec's Norton software. I can second all those rants. Glad I am not the only one grimacing at seeing the Emperor's new clothes are not everything they are painted up to be. I run the current Win98 version Norton SystemWorks 2000 without grief but it has not always been so simple. IMO, Much of Norton Systemworks is the computer equivalent of sweet smelling cologne or perfume. A lot of the benefits exist only in the perceptions of the user which are created by the marketing folks. I use the stuff too, but it sure can cause a big stink. And it simply can not cover up real problems in computer hygiene which can often be fixed more readily with the basic soap and water of Microsoft system utilities.
