I wondered whether yosoy4ever has the full version or a trial version. If there's problems with it then it might be better to re-install it. I recall someone else saying they solved Norton issues by re-installing their softw.

Seems good replacement for your current AV, hahaha

Okay, putting my two cents in, I experienced the same problem and you may want to run Avast to isolate a Trojan horse which is capable of disabling NAV as well as causing general havoc. My situation was a downloader Trojan Horse picked up from a freebie web site, you may want to backup and reinstall if you can't find a particular solution to your problem. And definitely get Peer Guardian...plus, I'm a girl, have years of partying experience, let's go global with this thing!

I use Norton products and, especially, I have used NIS 2003 and currently use NIS 2005, I may have the answer to your problem.

First of all you say:
Quote:
No problems in the first 3 months....now all of a sudden I keep seeing this message: SYSTEM STATUS: URGENT ATTENTION
Now, if your NIS 2004 came with a new computer then you will only have 90 days free use, the "Urgent Attention" message is telling you to renew your subscription in order to continue to receive anti-virus and firewall updates.

There is another possibility, it is possible that you got some form of malware (Trojan, virus, worm) that has got into your PC and disabled your Nortons. This happened to me when I left my teenage son with my PC surfing the net one Friday night. He either surfed somewhere he was not suppose to or downloaded something. Either way it attacked and disabled my NIS 2003, I had to delete my NIS, making sure that I left the settings intact, and then reinstall everything. That worked, I got my solution from the Symantec knowledgebase.

Finally, it would be a good idea to get to know your software by downloading the manual and having a read through it.

Good call ukbobboy01 I didn't even think about the 90 day thing.
