Has anyone else seen this?
After a reboot, the Windows Installer comes up, and I get a message saying "The MSI must be launched through Setup"..
If I click ok 3 times, it goes away..
Also, MSN messenger doesn't log in automatically anymore...
Wondering if it is just MY pc, or if others have seen this...
TIA,
wase4711

" In a house on the side of a big hill somewhere on the Pennines in the north west of England. Enough info??"
Need more info...
LMFAO!!
yeah, I don't care about having to re-login to MSN, but that message on reboot is a pain..
I may just go back to symantec corp, or wait for a REAL copy MKS_VIR, or the newest Kaspersky person PRO that is due out this week..
Norton is such a fricken pain, i should have known better...

I went through all this yesterday and then decided to put McAfee PF Plus verion 6 (new) in. Lot lighter in terms of an install and a really nice interface. But, I'm an old time Norton fan and will enjoy reading this thread.

yeah, mine was a fresh restore from an image that had Trend micro on it originally..Also, now when I open up MS Word, I get a simiilar Windows Installer come up..
NOW I remember why I ditched Norton a long time ago...out it goes!!
Hey Rikytik., does that Mccaffe App have an AV as part of it, or do you have to install that seperately??
I still am hoping for a working MKS_VIR, or the newest Kaspersky Personal PRO ....

No, wase. This new version 6 just came out a couple days ago on top of version 5 which I found sensational. Really nice stats. I have McAfee AV in one of my laptops as a test. But otherwise using Kaspersky for now on two desktops. I'm really impressed with McAfee Personal Firewall Plus.

yeah, I liked Kaspersky personal Pro, which is supposed to come out in version 5 any day now; the version 4.5 has been around a very long time...
Still like MKS_VIR the best though..
As far as firewalls, I have a NAT ROUTER,USR Secure Storage Pro 8200 NAS/VPN/Firewall, so for me, I think using SP2 Firewall, in conjunction with my router is plenty of security. I just cant decide on which Anti Virus to use!!
I thought I would see if the Norton 2005 stuff worked better than 2004, but, at least on my machine, it was nothing but trouble...

well Wase4711 if your image NEVER had NIS on it before, I have no suggestions - sorry.
