System Restore & Symantec Corporate Edition 9

[Guest]

I posted earlier about system restore not working and the event log
displaying a "SAVRT" error which appears to be caused by Symantec Anti-Virus
Corporate Edition 9 software. In the earlier post I was informed that
Corporate Edition 9 caused the same problem for another person. My questions
are these:

Does running Symantec Antivirus Corp Edition 9 corrupt the system restore
function all the time? Is there a way to fix Edition 9 to prevent this from
happening?
Does Symantec have a patch to fix the problem? What if you were to shut down
Edition 9 before you did a manual system restore - would that prevent it from
corrupting the restore function? If another restore point or system
checkpoint would be made when Edition 9 is running would it corrupt the
previous manual restore points I made? Is Symantec or Microsoft aware of this
problem and does other versions of Symantec do the same thing?

Hi,

Can you post a link to the patch please? I am very interested in
seeing it.

Hi,

I do not know of a patch to fix the problem, or at least I can not
find it. It was posted here that a patch does exist. I have asked for
a link to the patch.

The only way to prevent restore point corruption without a patch,
would be to disable the application responsible for stating "SAVRT".
