Hi loophole!

Ooooh :) The computer seems to be working better! So far, no popups. I also signed on to AIM and the weird mouse thing is not happening! So great, thank you!!! :tazz:
Question... should I turn on the System Restore function?

The following things are still happening tho... any ideas?
- upon sign-on, get the balloon saying "Your system may be at risk. Symantec has been disabled. "
- 4 or 5 balloons pop up consecutively saying the same thing: (paraphrased) "Norton Antivirus Speed Disk Drivers have been disabled to keep your system working properly"
Are these things normal? Fixable?

Firstly (i know you may have tried this) Can you reenable Norton and reboot and tell me if the problem is fixed . If not we will see what we can do :tazz:

hey :tazz:

to reenable norton, i usually would right-click on the icon on the lower right of my screen, and click "Enable". but in this case, the only things I see are "Open Symantec Antivirus" and "Enable Auto-protect"... and the Auto-protect does have a checkmark next to it already....


so what do i do? i'm probably just not looking in the right place.


(i'll be gone until about 7pm but I'll check this site again when I get back to see if you've posted anything. thanks again!)

Lets find out if your anti virus is actually working..Reboot the computer and let it run for a couple of minutesand clear all the warning balloons out. The following is only a standardized test and not a virus

No, your antivirus should have caught it. Make sure enable auto protection is checked and try it one more time

Your supposed to get a virus warning. It works for me everytime and I have norton :tazz: . Did your Norton come on disk or was it a download. How long do you have on the subscription?

this may be a really dumb question... but is "Symantec" the same thing as Norton? because I have Symantec.... I downloaded it from our school website where the school computer people told me I should DL it.

if i right-click and disable the auto-protect, the balloon pops up saying my system might be at risk. but if i rigkt-click then again and enable it, it goes away. i turned on System Restore and restarted and it seemed to start in the Enabled state and not the Disabled state finally, so maybe that was it?

but now I'm wondering why the virus test doesn't work... lemme know waht you think. thanks so much!

Nope not a dumb questionat all. Actually your right it is now Symantec.... I'm used to calling it Norton because everybody I reply to says nortonTry this link and let me know if you get a virus warning link If you dont then your Symantec has probably been compromised. We can fix it but I will have to do some digging to find the right registry key to fix or you can uninstall it and get a different program.

Neither this is a test. You click the link and Symantec should pop up and say it is a virus. If it doesn't then theres a problem somewhere

hmmm okay.

well when i click the link, a window pops up that says:

File Download-Security Warning
Do you want to Run or Save this file?
(And then I just clicked cancel)


But I don't get anything from Symantec. Does that mean my Symantec is not working?

I would guess so??? I'm guessing this is free since you got it through school. We can uninstall it then reinstall. We can uninstall then Install a free antivirus like AVG which is good. Or I can try to figure out what registry keys we need to fix.
