DCOM event 10010

[Catherine]

I have windows XP service pack 1 and norton internet
security 2004 with all the updates.

When i connect to the internet I get Dcom Error 10010 ,
the server {SERVER NO} did not register within the
required timeout. After extesive research of my pc i have
traced the server to Symantec.securitycentre.SymWSCSVC
and Symantec.securitycentre.SymWSCSVC.1

This problem makes windows hang when i close the system
down and prevents me from connecting to messenger.

I have looked on every helpsite available. Symantec say
it an out of date DCOM on windows NT4. Well i don't have
windows NT4? And i have all the update for XP installed.
When i am not running Norton internet Security i do not
get the problem. Is there a fix for this apart from
chuking Norton when Service pack two comes out?

Please help,

Thankyou.

Catherine,
I have been having the same error in my log, with norton system works i have
had problems installing the password manager. i believe this error is this
service trying to start but i do not have an answer for a fix yet but i am
trying to figure it out too...

I started to see a DCOM error after running NT4's Live Update a few
days ago after applying WMI update.

After several attempts to correct the DCOM error by uninstalling and
reinstalling NT4 I decided to install the Live Update patches one at a
time which is how I determined that, for me, the WMI update was the
problem.
To be on the safe side I followed the following procedure when
uninstalling NT4 to make the uninstall as thorough as possible.

First run NT4's uninstall; than reboot and delete the Symantec Shared
folder in C:\Program Files\Common Files\, the Symantec folder in
C:\Program Files and finally delete the Symantec folder in
C:\Documents and Settings\Mike\Application Data.

Next I reinstalled NT4 and ran Live Update downloaded all the updates
except WMI update (uncheck the box next to WMI update).
The DCOM errors have not recurred.

Just a guess on my part but I think the WMI update was issued to
address issues NT4 had with XP SP2 version of DCOM but, in turn
created an issued with the version of DCOM contained in XP with
service patch 1.
