When trying to install a new Norton anti-virus (it failed to install)
I was informed that some system files had been replaced by
unrecognizable versions and I needed to go to the XP CD to re-install
the correct versions. When trying that I was told my SP1 system CD
could not be used since the installed system version was newer than
the CD. I assume this is because of the update to SP1. Also, all
attempts at automatic security updates from Microsoft fail with code
80242FFF.
My system is working okay right now but I figure I have a problem. I
badly need to install Norton anti-virus and can't. How can I
replace/install the correct files?
