I purchased, installed and upgraded from NIS 2004 to NIS 2006 a couple months ago.

It’s been working fine. However, last week I’ve started to get a pop-up window that appears every time I start the computer or open a new application (for instance Outlook).

The pop-ups are as follows:

First a small window titled “Windows Installer” appears that states: “Preparing to install…”

Next, another small window appears titled “Norton Antivirus 2006” that states: “Please wait while Windows configures Norton Antivirus 2006."

Finally a third small window appears also titled “Norton Antivirus 2006” that has a triangular yellow caution symbol and states “Norton Antivirus 2006 does not support Repair feature, please uninstall and reinstall.”

I need to click the last window 2 or 3 times to just get all of these windows to close – and then everything works fine after that.

Why are these windows appearing? How do I get them to stop appearing?

Thanks.

Craig
