This seems to be a problem with norton anti virus and I have had this problems numerous times but think it had something to do with the sites I was looking at. Picked someting up which knocked my live update out and my firewall.
I have since had to re-load windows, use a different anti virus software and no longer go on sites such as Limewire or any torrent sites and have had no furthe problems

The Norton A/V software is usually only a three months free version after which you have to pay a renewal fee. Personally I would recommend that you remove Norton with add/remove programmes and then get a free version. I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spy ware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/ On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. Hope this helps.

sturdy protection calls for a multi-layered strategies-set, and the least significant layer with the help of a few distance is working some form of anti-malware software (in certainty, while you're looking after all the different layers, you do no longer even desire an anti-malware software utilising up greater suitable materials). so as of magnitude: a million. Create and use merely approximately solely a constrained consumer account rather of the default administrator account domicile windows gadgets you up with 2. study up on social engineering and the thank you to circumvent it 3. do no longer acquire unlawful copies of utility, song, or video clips 4. Set domicile windows updates to place in right away 5. Make in many circumstances happening backups. If a possibility, lower back up your finished setting up (utilising Norton Ghost or Acronis genuine image)

I have this problem with Norton. I went to Norton's web site for the fix. Since you did not state the name of your anti-virus software ,I can't be of any more help.
