Thankyou so much! You are a Windows God! Your fix worked. I guess I
shouldn't be surprised that the successful fix would be so easy, reading all
the other threads about this problem. But I would never have found it
without your help.
I am a little puzzled about how it happened. I am assuming that the Norton
uninstall deleted that Registry key. If so, is it a good idea to purchase a
program that manages the Registry to improve performance and fix system
problems? Or are they dangerous as well?
