Auto Protect Disabled

G

Guest

I have WIndows XP Home Version 5.1 SP 2 installed on my new dell and also
installed Norton Anti Virus 2004 and Norton Internet Security 2004.

With the Norton Anti Virus, the Auto Protect feature continously disables,
often multiple times during one internet session. Any idea what is causing
this?

Also, with the Norton Internet Security, I can't enable Intrusion
Protection. I get an error message which states "Please verity your Windows
account is not restricted." Not sure what I'm looking for here either.

Thanks for your help.

Today, WindowsUpdate automatically installed KB890830 (malicious
blablabla) onto my XPproSP2 system with Norton Antivirus 2004 installed
(both in French). Immediately after, my firewall (ZoneAlarm Pro) alerted
me that my system was no long protected against viruses. After checking,
Norton auto-protect was disabled (without my permission, of course) and
I was unable to reactivate it until I uninstalled NAV completely and
reinstalled it from scratch. Are there other similar experiences? (As
far as I know, the incriminated windows update CANNOT be uninstalled)
