Symantec has announced that some users of its Norton Internet Security, Norton AntiVirus, and Norton 360 are experiencing problems when upgrading to XP service pack three.
The company has told its customers that before they install XP SP3 they should switch off the “SymProtect” feature of these products to avoid problems like an emptied Windows Device Manager and deleted network connections which could prevent users from connecting to the internet.
If you are using one off these products and would like to upgrade to Window XP Service Pack 3, you can find instructions for turning off the SymProtect feature here on the Norton discussion forum.
