Default Secure Delivery Plug In

This aggravating message appears with great regularity on
my screen: Security Delivery Plug In has encountered a
problem and needs to close. We are very sorry for the
inconvenience. If you were in the middle of
something...might be lost. We have created an error
message....
I have made certain that Windows and Norton have been
updated, that my firewall is set up. Nothing seems to
close. And when I send the error report, I hear nothing.
What does this message mean? Why is it appearing so
often? How can I get rid of it if I should?

First. Make sure of these settings and nothing will install without
you
answering YES. (Except what may install as part of some other
software.)
Don't click YES if you don't know/trust the source.

Start | Settings | Control Panel | Internet Options | Advanced tab |
Make sure both of these are NOT checked.

Third.
It is known as scumware. Visit these sites. 1, 2, 3 and 4 are
really good.
Download, install, run, update and run again; one or all. They are
all
good, FREE utilities. Make sure you update every program, even if
you
just downloaded it. You must have the latest updates. Without
updates,
you have a gun without ammo.
