XP and Norton

[Mark Corbelli]

I know this is a Norton question but the Symantec newsgroups that I've
posted to don't seem to get read alot. Here's the problem. On bootup, my
computer is taking at least 5 minutes before I can use it. I've been through
the startup menu and I believe I've eliminated everything that I can. When
there is the long pause, the next thing that the computer does is load NAV
and Internet Security. So I'm thinking that is where the problem lies, but I
can't be sure. I get an occasional message that CcApp couldn't find this or
that. Norton's online help recognizes that this CcApp has caused error
messages for some users, then states that CcApp is an important file and
can't be removed. In other words...tough beans.

Has anyone had a similar problem with Norton that they've been able to
decipher?

why not try disabeling all norton services at startup
using the services selector in System configuration
utility found in the help and support menu. if the
machine then starts as normal then you have pinned down
the problem and can decide whether to remove and reload
norton or try looking at other services that are run at
start-up and disabelling them.

I had a simular problem and cured it by not letting
Norton scan my hard drives when i boot up. It seem to
take lots of time.

Thanks, I will try that today.
