Help With Norton Antivirus 2003 Pro

[the-ninja69]

I had problems with norotn antivirus 2003 pro because i couldnt do a full system scan and i couldnt download and update for it. So i went onto site and uninstalled it and uninstalled liveupadte. Deleted the folders and deleted the regisrty keys too. So now when i install it it comes with error and says i cant use live upadte ans still i cant do full system scan. I reinstalled a bunch of times but still i have problem.

WTF is going on and why isnt live upadte wroking anymore?

Help Me!!!

mybe it's the reall Norton anti-virus.........
look for one in the verified hashes section
other than that i can't help except saying that don't use norton it sucks, use McAfee :D :lol:

I had a real nightmare with this too, it couldn't completely uninstall because live update was running, constantly in use, i could never find all the bits and consequently couldn't reinstall because it kept telling me i had to unistall first.

In the end I booted in safe mode, uninstalled norton, symantic, live update and then deleted every damn folder belonging to them i could find. went into msconfig (XP) and removed anything from start up I could find, rebooted and installed McAfee utilities, I think its called FixIt, that checked through the registry and repaired it.

then for some insane reason I reinstalled Norton, not really sure WHY, probably coz I'm used to it.

yep myne was being GAY too so i switched to PC-Cillin 2003. much Betta. i couldnt do anything except look at the pretty thing
it wouldnt scan for me, nor update, NOTHING. i also tried 2002 pro did even worse stuff nortons is so damn buggy.

Are you guys sure you got the right ones? I posted Norton AV Pro 2003 in the Verifieds before, and it worked fine and still is working good.

[the-ninja69]

Well how is using 2003 going to do anything livupdate will still be fuked up?

[the-ninja69]

I decided not to go with norton and waste time trying to fix it and just went with pc-cillin 2003. It works well and i decided ill keep with this for now. Anybody got a hash or sig2dat for a patch so it auotmatically registered?

I too had problems with NAV 2003. The big one was that it would randomly turn off the auto-protect without showing me and error or anything. I switched back to my trusty NAV 2002 and will just try to keep up to date on definitions for now.

get NAV pro 2003 it works perfect I had problems with the NAV 2003 version but the Pro version works charmly :D :lol:

[the-ninja69]

If u read earlier i did have NAV 2003 Pro. So what do you mean?

[acebrain01]

@ninja its nav 2002 and i belive there is a unistall program at nortons website to remove all of nav 2003 & then get the 2 files i posted.


@gumby get the norton hack i posted will give you fresh new year after running liveupdate 1st time..... can be reused until 2029 yes that the year two thousand twenty nine.......

Here is the support page for their anti-virus software. I have been told that using this tool and re-installing Norton's will give you another year of virus definitions subscriptions.

Symantec Website (http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/nav.nsf/docid/2001092114452606?Open&src=&docid=2002061016251406&nsf=nav.nsf&view=8d071816eedd7cac88256c0e005a96e5&dtype=&prod=&ver=&osv=&osv_lvl=)

Also ensure that you have a good version of Nortons Anti-virus software before re-installing.

Yes im very aware of that tool.

I did my research before i posted this. Did everything it said and still norton AV is fu**ed up.

Right now im using PC-cillin 2003 for now.

[DARKSHADOW]

mav 2003 theres a bug with certain xp installations if u go to there site and have a little search theres a live update patch u install b4 installing the nav :)

[the-ninja69]

Yes i know of it. It is the program update but when live update did work it wouldnt install and it said the error was because i had sp1. So i couldnt fix it and i couldnt get the update.

[Supernatural]

This is too bad. I've installed NAV 2003 pro on many systems and they run perfect. I dont think there is a bug with the program, rather a bug with the systems that have problems running it.
