i have norton internet security on my comp and i use it as my firewall and such because it came with my computer. well i dunno why it does this but since yesterday when i log into windows it says:

"windows is configuring norton antivirus 2005"

then another pops up that says "norton antivirus 2005 does not support the repair feature please uninstall and reinstall" then i just click the ok button.

so i dont get it how do i fix this?

Hi Xiah,

There are multiple reasons for this according to Symantec. Follow Symantec's instructions below step by step.

Message: "Norton AntiVirus 2005 does not support the repair feature..."

If you have to reinstall be sure to follow Symantec's instructions to the letter.

Uninstalling and reinstalling your Symantec program after you see error messages

Hello,

The greatest fix to this problem is to uninstall norton completely. Get AVG antivirus from : http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php and zonealarm firewall from http://www.zonelabs.com/ and install them. Both are free and much better then over-rated norton the problem generator useless software.


Best piece of software that symantec developed is symentec removal tool use it if you cant remove it via add/remove programs.

there you go purplesky, you nailed it. AVG is much more better than norton. pair AVG up with zonealarm and youve got a good anti-virus/firewall combo.
