Hi, I like Media Centre and the idea behind it. There's just one slight
irritation and that's the error message from the subject line that keeps
cropping up. The only other thing the message features is a tick box to
'disable this application'.

For the first while that I had this machine this wasn't a problem and I
don't know what the cosequences of using the tick box will be. Installing
the Media Centre updates did not help.

It would be great if somebody out there could tell me what this is and how
to fix it.

Thanks!

Do you have or did you have a Norton antivirus program on your system?

Hey, you know what I do have Norton antivirus and it was something that I
installed some time after I had the computer. In other words its probable
that this problem cropped up the same time as I installed Norton.

Have you any ideas on what I should do next?

Regards from frozen Norway:-)

I don't use Norton, but that file is most likely related to some Symantec
product. Is anything listed in the startup programs that looks like it might
be this program? You should have some items in there for the background
virus scanning, but maybe that is some additional program running that isn't
needed.

You could try uninstalling it, to verify that is the origin of the error.
Then, you might then be able to reinstall and have it work correctly without
the error.

You also might try going to http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/ and see
if they have anything posted about that error (and hopefully a fix).
