Greetings. That's the woman's lot isn't it? I have to go trolley racing today, that's my lot. Although, if I really push myself, I may make it to the Malvern Antiques Fair. I am having trouble with motivation at the present though.

FEB about to get demolished... always on call here, time to hit the party prairie again this afternoon :) Giving the Tesco urge a swerve today - my doctor nearly mowed me down on Thursday, so I think I'll wait until I know she's safely back at work.

At least if you get run over by a doctor, medical help is not far away!

DD. I installed Norton Internet Security last month from disc bought at PC World but I think I would have been better installing as a renewal direct as had problems getting it working. Had to keep running Live Update as the disc obviously isn't as up to date as the website. I tried a version of MBs advice but wasn't clever enough!!

If you do install Norton, DD and have Security Pack 2 Windows already installed, make sure you turn off the Windows Firewall before you begin!

Very clever MM. I bought Norton 2005 at PC world for 25 after I could not update my 2003 version. If only I had known..

when you adjust the clock back it has to be before it expired if you get what i mean ie if it expires on say 30 dec 2000 set your clock to the 29 dec 2000 it always works :-)When you install norton it always asks when you want it to start from and that is when your years ugrades start from !!!!

It is really clever MB - I had been told to uninstall and reinstall package just before expiry date but that didn't seem to work as some of files didn't completely uninstall, whereas your system is so much quicker :-)

Mb,thanks for that advice,would you say it is best to wait until it has expired before i do the clock,or a couple of days before.

Dazzler,
When your license is approaching expiry, there will be a window which appears habitually (at start up from memory) telling you that you need to renew your subscription and inviting you to renew on-line. You will need to play about with the options to stop this window from re-appearing. You will also need to disable the automatic live update facility.
After that, whenever you want to update your program (once a fortnight or once a month), you just reset your PC clock beforehand and then go into Norton and do the live update.
