C: ACCESS DENIED

[Guest]

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

Hello:
At start up my computer now has an error that states Norton Protection:
Attention! Access Denied, drive C: It is Dell running on Windwos xp. Do you
have any idea what this error could be from? I have looked everywhere for a
solution. At first I thought this was from my Norton Antivirus but after
reinstalling that, it still appears.

Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated.
