RE: Major Problelm with Beta Technical Refresh

Do you get anywhere with Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Change Norton Anti-Virus 2006? Is there any option to remove Office plugins/addins?
I don't have NAV 2006, so I can't check this here.
You might be able to do something manually about this:
Search for officeav.dll and if found go to Start/Run and run the
following command:

regsvr32 /u "c:\program files\norton antivirus\officeav.dll"
I have no idea whether NAV will not just revert this once you reboot your computer though.

Patrick - that knowledge base article does not reference how to disable
automatic scanning in Norton Anti-Virus 2006. None of what you have
suggested works on that version. I have gone into the control panel of
Norton Protection Center and turned off Auto-Protect and made sure that the
box for re-starting Auto Protect at start-up is disabled. Even with this,
once I reboot the computer it still restores the Auto Protect and every
existing document when I try to open it is error messaged as being
unavailable as soon as Word or Excel tries to scan for viruses. If I simply
disable Auto-Protect and don't reboot, I get the same result.

Is there some other feature on my Fujitsu LIfeBook T4210 that would be
telling Office to use the plug in for Norton every time Office opens? This
is very frustrating and probably means I need to remove Norton from my
computer entirely or abandon using Office 2007.
