topic Norton Symantec in PCs & Accessories https://community.sony.com.mk/t5/pcs-accessories/norton-symantec/m-p/57873#M70949 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi All I'm the new proud owner of a Sony FZ laptop which has Vista Home and a 90 day trial of Norton Symantec. I've set myself up as a user with a password, but Norton insists that I'm not the administrator and won't install some of the updates. The manual states that I should set a password in the bios and then a user - do I need to delete myself as a user and just use the bios password? Every time I log on Norton wants to go to live update - and I just go round in circles. Any help gratefully received <img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://community.sony.com.mk/html/@3191CA7235A406D833094BA2DD1CF2FF/images/smilies/011.png" alt=":slight_smile:" title=":slight_smile:" /> Also, I can't type anything in the body of emails using Outlook Web Access. Any ideas? A google search seems to imply that it's the fault of my server provider and they need to install a patch, but I've found one or two other websites which don't display correctly (using pop up screens). I've tried to permit popups, but it's no go! Thanks for reading!!<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 16 Aug 2007 20:14:30 GMT happybunnikins 2007-08-16T20:14:30Z Norton Symantec https://community.sony.com.mk/t5/pcs-accessories/norton-symantec/m-p/57873#M70949 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi All I'm the new proud owner of a Sony FZ laptop which has Vista Home and a 90 day trial of Norton Symantec.

Sony has to stop this idiocy.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 17 Aug 2007 09:11:03 GMT https://community.sony.com.mk/t5/pcs-accessories/norton-symantec/m-p/57874#M70950 davemee 2007-08-17T09:11:03Z
