Re: Norton AntiVirus 2006 and System Restore

I'm with you Steve. I've also had NAV since Win95 and now have NAV2006. In
fact, I had to use system restore just before reading this mail because of a
fatal error that wouldn't allow re-boot except safe mode. Simple restore and
I am back to normal.

I have 2 desltop PC's and a notebook, ALL with NAV 2006.
The desktops have XP Pro and the Notebook has XP Home.

I have used sytem restore MANY, MANY times on them, in fact I rolled
back a day yesterday on both the desktops !.... and every time with no
problems with NAV 2006.

Althought I am not a big fan of Norton programs other than NAV (bad
experience many years ago with internet security), NAV if fine with me
.... why so many people knock it I don't know, I have used it since
Win 95 days withiout a single problem....

Just my opinion !

I have the same problem as some other posts here, where my system restore
won't function properly because of Norton AntiVirus 2006. I can find the
miscellaneous tab to turn ot the 'Turn protection on for my Symantec'
feature, however I cannot find anything referring to the 'Symantec
Resource
Protection' feature. I fear until I can find this I will not be able to
restore my computer. Please Help.
