I had Norton Internet Security 2006 before. I did an uninstall of it and
Live update from Norton and then installed 360 which included loading live
update. I don't know what you mean by "is the machine fully patched by
update"? I have never updated to service pack2 only service pack 1. Had
some neighbors that had all kinds of problems after they put service pack
2
on their machines.
Everything had been working perfectly until immediately after putting the
Norton 360 on machine. I can open a web page and go to other web pages
ok--it is only when I ry to close a page that I run into the application
error.

Did you upgrade to Norton 360?
If you uninstall Norton 360 Add-ons, does the behavior persist?

If you have WinXP Service Pack 1, you have an unsupported operating system
full of security holes. First clean up the machine and then install SP2.
Do a thorough check for malware, following all of the steps at one of these

So How Did I Get Infected Anyway?
For quite a few people it's by installing Messenger Plus, whose ads for
malware don't identify the malware as such and try to convince you that you
owe it to the author. See also:

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything. Always choose Custom and see
what else is being carried along. Don't install any extras you're not sure
of.
