I have norton antivirus 2004 for xp; renewed subscription, no error message ; says my latest dats are from 2-3-05. Does the new dat come out Wednesday?(just want to be sure I have latest dat installed)
When I run live update, it indicates all my files are up to date.
Anyone feel free to post on this; moderatot can email me. Thank you.
 
2/3/05 rev 8 is the lastest and greatest def file. Symantec usually updates once a week, on Wednesdays, but will update more often if high security responses are released. Usually they will update before Wednesday if there is a level 3 or higher security response released.
 
Updated a few minutes ago(use "interactive" live update).
Why is there a question mark when the software finds a new dat file, downloads the file, but when installing, stops at half way thru and says file has been installed(before progress bar goes all the way to right). I feel like I am installing part of same dat file I installed on 2-3-05??
Then window pops up lower right of system tray telling me that now my virus definitions files are up to date.??
