NAV 2007

My PC came with Norton pre-installed. I promptly uninstalled it and loaded Grisoft's free AVG, which I've used virtually for as long as I've been online. As Gary says, there's a new version out.

Well it took a few hours but mission complete. It was nothing to do with NAV 2007, from somewhere I had been "invaded"

There were 3 dll's on my system that were redirecting a bunch of commands to do with the security center and NAV, also in the services it was not possible to turn on the security center.

I then noticed in my services that remote registry was also emabled, somthin g you never want at any time.

Into safe mode, got rid of the 3 offending dll's, then did a registry scan and presto, all the entries I had no yet found were there, all gone now.

NAV now working as it should

All in all there are some very nasty people out there that hide some of this stuff in files you download, could be any file like a song or movie and then you don't know it till something starts acting up. I'm just the kind of person that doesn't give up till I find the route cause, just took some time and a lot of reading.

Many thanks for all replies here.

I am now a happy camper again

Nice one..you're sorted and that's the main thing

The intervening discussion is always of interest as there problems affect lots of people.

There y'go Mr Seaking,
an able demonstration of why not to run Norton.

Resident 'geek' in our house recommends Kaspersky or F-Secure if you want to pay, or AVG plus Sygate personal firewall for freebies
