Well Iv been into the Norton several times run a live update thats supposed to put problems right, has it ? NO :eek:
So Iv sent a message to the support team, they are going to get back to me in 24 hours I ask you 24 hrs,whats all that about :eek: If they dont get it sorted out soon,Im off to delete it off my lappy and install AVG, the flippen Norton cost me 60 quid :eek: and its been nothing but trouble,I had this bother when I tried to access the pay-pal site, but that was sorted by running the update.
I mean how can MSN not be a secure site,its making me :mad:er by the minute.


We changed from Norton to AVG, found it much easier. Use the FREE edition and it just updates daily and chaecks everything daily.

You'll leave yourself open to attack if you switch it off. The best line of attack is to download AVG, disconnect your internet, then remove Norton and install AVG as per the instruction I sent you (hope you understand it). The only thing I can't remember is if Norton accesses the internet when you remove it (I doubt) or if AVG does when installing (probable). You'll just have to re attach if it prompts you on installation ;)

I wore those on a site once once, guess where the lump of metal angle iron hit me when someone beside me dropped it.
Right across my foot above the ruddy toecap.

One of my top moans too. I once made my sons work out how many socks need unravelling in a week - four pairs a day, plus sports socks. Once they'd worked out that about 60 or 70 socks go through the wash in a week, they tried a bit harder. I think it lasted about three days. :mad:

I even have to unravel his undies, they roll up as he is sliding them down his legs :rofl::rofl:

At least he puts them in the basket! How did you train him to do that? Crumpled up dirty socks in our house seem to end up under the table, under the settee, under the bed, anywhere but the wash basket :curse:

Shirts he treats like t-shirts - inside out and buttons still done up!

Training for men should be compulsory prior to any female living with them or marrying them. There are dog training classes so why not men training classes. Must admit that even though my OH's mum doted on him she trained him well on dealing with the dirty washing issues and those that gripe me such as rolled up socks he has taken on board.

My OH keeps leaving his socks in the lounge and now my boys are doing the same. I thought I'd try picking them up and putting them still smelly and smouldering in a nice big pile on his pillow. I wonder how long he'll take to get the message . . . ;)

Although they'll probably just end up thrown over onto my side!
