Jimmy;

I agree with your comments with one exception. Not everything improved. One
thing that did not was my Norton AV (2003). After installing sp2 my "Auto
Protect" is disabled each time I reboot even though it is in startup. I'm
forced to turn it back on in the tray each time. Symantec has no fix posted
for this problem and they don't support NAV 2003 any longer. I guess they
want me to buy a newer version but I'm not sure that will fix the problem.

Do you have any ideas?
