Do a 'repair' install.. http://www.michaelstevenstech.com..

When all is well again, consider using something newer than Norton AV 2002..
the program is way out of date.. a good alternative, and free too, is AVG
Anti-Virus v7..

Hi,

Try running System Restore from Safe Mode.

If this is successful either choose to undo the previous restore or
restore to and earlier date.
