SP2 & Norton Internet Security

[Fizzikal]

Recently formatted and did clean install of WinXP Pro.
Norton NSW, NAV & NIS 2003 installed and all okay.
Installed all critical WinUpdates and after SP2 installed, cannot
access Internet or Outlook Express and get message "Cannot
find Server" unless turn off Norton Internet Security. Enabled
Windows Firewall & able to access IE and OE. Reinstalled
NIS but didn't help.

Before did clean install, had SP2 and no problem using NIS
and had windows firewall off. Have searched Symantec and
SP2 links with nil results. Any further ideas as to why NIS
now won't work with SP2 would be much appreciated.

Hello fizz,

Did you have the anti-virus on while installing SP2?
If so, that's your problem. After a install go to updates FIRST after
updates are complete then install your security software. Best of luck to you

Tx for reply. Yes, did forget to disable anti-virus while
installing SP2. Will start over & follow your suggestions.
