After downloading the most recent Windows patches, an icon showed up in my
systray with the name Microsoft Security Alert. I set everything up as
suggested, but the alert will not disappear when there are no alerts. In
fact, even though my Norton AntiVirus is updated and my computer has
recently had a full scan, I get the alert "Norton AntiVirus reports that it
is installed, but its status is unknown."

I get this same message on two different computers, so I assume this is
either a bug or that I have not configures something rights.]

Can anyone help me resolve this issue?
