Norton Antivirus seems to be affecting my Sys Restore
points. A restore point will be established for today,
but tomorrow , when the next established time arrives
for Restore Point, the previous day is dropped. This only
happens when Norton Antivirus is activated.

I have read 812119 pertaining to possible Real Player
interference. However, I was able to establish 6
consecutive Points with Real installed, but Norton
disabled. Thus, I feel problem is with Norton.No answer
from them yet! All they want is your money.

Have done Sys File Check and a Repair Installation.
Didn't help!

PLEASE read this and send me any suggestions. Thanks in
advance. John
