error install message ?

I am trying to install an old Win95 application that I have installed
many times on many different machines and different versions of
MSwindows including XP. However today I tried to install it on
and XP machine and got the below message that I have never seen
before.........
C:\PROGRA~1\Symantec\S32EVNT1.DLL. An installable Virtual Device
Driver failed DLL initialization. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application
CLOSE IGNORE
So I chose ignore and the installation went ok. Does anyone know what this
is referring to ? I don't even have Symantec on this machine and it is an
Autodesk product I'm installing.

Have you ever had any Symantec product installed and then removed it?

Do you have a Symantec folder in your Program Files folder? If yes,
Symantec has been installed at sometime (but is sometimes difficult to
remove completely).

When you performed a Google search on the error such as:

S32EVNT1.DLL An installable Virtual Device Driver failed DLL
initialization

Did any of those offered solutions (like the one from Symantec) work?
