The problem I am having is with Norton System Works 2005's System Doctor. I
searched Google Groups for Symantec System Doctor and found ONE string that
seemed similar to my problem. After clicking on 5 or 6 broken links I looked
closer and saw that the string was from 1998.

I then searched for Norton System Works 2005. It showed me HUNDREDS of
places to buy the software but nary a hint of support issues.
