norton live update ?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

Chere,
The first thing I'd try is to temporarily disable your firewall and try
Live Update again. If that works it will mean that you must add Symantec's
Live Update to your "Trusted List" in your firewall program.

Chere,

Sorry, I forgot to say it, but be sure to reenable your firewall
afterward.

This also happened to me today, and after wasting a half an hour
following Symantec's suggestions, gave up. Three hours later tried
again, and it downloaded. Can only assume that the site was down for
awhile -- and as usual Symantec doesn't tell you that they have a
problem; instead they waste your time. Is that sufficient to give up
Symantec? No, not by itself, but couple with their other problems, I am
ready to switch to another antivirus and forget NSW.

Thanks everyone for the help. It must have been there problem because live
update is working fine this morning. It would be nice if Systematic would
notify you when they have a problem.

What has http://www.systematic.com/ to do with NAV?

Try the norton group(s) for your Norton's product.

First though, check your firewall is allowing "LiveUpdate" to access the
'net to retrieve the updates (should be listed in "Exceptions" or "Trusted
Programs" or the like.

Nothing? the site is www.symantec.com!

You misread it. None of the posts on this thread mention anything about
systematic.com
