As the administrator on my wifes laptop, I set the Symantec LiveUpdate service to "Automatic", but next time the machine boots it resets itself to "Manual".

The result is every few days, I have to log in as the administrator to update the virus definitions.

Does anyone know how I can force it to keep the "Automatic" setting?

The machine is a HP 510, running XP Home with all the latest patches.

Thanks


Steve
