The above error (see subject) I received on my box running XP Pro. I am
running Symantec Corporate Edition Version 9.0.0.338. To resolve the
problem, I ended up stopping and restarting the service as follows:
1. Right click on 'My Computer' and select 'Manage.'
2. Select Services and Applications->Services.
3. Right click Symantec Antivirus (in the services list) and select
'Stop.'
4. After the service stops, right click Symantec Antivirus again and
select 'Start.'
I thought that I would share my solution since a clear resolution to
this particular problem has not been posted as of yet.
