I recently got norton 2008, but cannot access it nor can i access internet

You need to contact and or email Symantec and ask them for help to reinstall Norton, you need to give them your account details.

Yes the setting in Norton is uninstall. It is a resource hog with it's own agenda.Internet security is built in to the system (your firewall) Norton trys to replace them with it's own tags. AVG antivirus is free and blows Norton away.So bye bye Norton .You will also notice an increase in speed.

You can contact Symantec at the link below to request your renewal key details again. Just explain what happened, and they should be happy to grant your request. Good luck!

hi there,

although, not specified what you did but i presume 2 actions:

1. Running the program and cannot be completely loaded, it means that there's a program that block your Norton Internet Security 2008 to run, and that might be a Virus or Trojan. or someone is hacking in your pc (might be). and this will happen, if your Norton Internet Security 2008 is not updated and/or you install an internet plug ins in some of your visited website and through that plug ins the website administrator has a link in your pc to access, but not all.

solution: try to uninstall and fresh install your Norton Internet Security 2008 but before you do that make sure that you have a supported docs like cd key and response code from Norton if any, to successfully install your anti virus. and before you install, unplug your connection from internet (install offline, after installation, update it and scan your pc).

2. you install your Norton Internet Security 2008 and cannot be completely loaded, it means that Norton program is corrupted. please have a fresh copy in cd if any and install it.

Hi,

* First disable both real time protection and firewall in NIS 2008 - It will ask how long should it be disabled. Give it as till restart

* Now you will be able to access the internet without any problem

If you are not able to perform the following step, I can help you with this using remote access for free!!!

* Now you need to configure your firewall to allow internet access for your browser. Once this step completed, You can enable the firewall and start browsing without any problem

Take care
