>-----Original Message----- >I have norton internet security 2002 and lately it has started to act strange. My firewall configurations (those who decide which programs that have access to internet and which that have not) are constantly updating itself, about one time every second. This causes my computer to run very slow and after a while run out of memory and then crash. > >what seems to be the problem? I´ve tried to reinstall, scan for viruses and I have checked symantecs webpage but I couldn´t solve the problem. > >If anybody have a clue, please help >. > The very same thing was happing to me last week!It seems to be a corrupted file, "symproxy.exe" It happened when I installed an update and was told I had to reboot,I uninstalled and reinstalled three flapping times to no avail.Finally I got disgusted and installed "ZoneAlarm" and after using it for a week I relized that I should have installed it a couple of years ago, Way better than Norton's firewall. www.zonelabs.com I e/mailed symantec last week "still waiting" for an answer glad I'm not holding my breath. |

ok thanks for your answer
i still havent got a solution to the problem. I called norton support and had to talk english with some guy from holland, not easy when i am from sweden. Anyway, he couldn´t help me with my problem. I will wait for a week or so, if it isn´t fixed by then maybe I install zonealarm just as you said i anyone can fix this problem, please e-mail me |
