Am resending this. Just realized that the link to Symantec's site has the
word vir*s embedded in it. I have changed the url to vir*s. The u must be
substituted for the * to get the right page.

A client's machine is running Win XP Home and NAV 2002, preinstalled by a
major manufacturer. Problem: Live Update has stopped working. She is getting
the message "Live Update could not get the list of updates. LiveUpdate could
not retrieve the catalog file..." as described in the following page from
Symantec's site:

http://service4.symantec.com/SUPPORT/sharedtech.nsf/docid/2000071709543913?O
penDocument&src=hot&prod=Norton%20AntiVir*s&ver=2002%20for%20Windows%202000/
NT/Me/98/XP&stg=2&base=http://www.symantec.com/techsupp/nav/&next=nav_2002_s
earch_solve_lu.html&sone=nav_2002_tasks.html&tpre=

I have tried every solution that Symantec gives. I updated the LU program to
the latest version. I deleted the settings.liveupdate
file(s) numerous times and rebooted. I disabled the Win XP firewall. In
addition, I uninstalled NAV 2002 and reinstalled it. All to no avail.

Environment: 1.6 GHZ, lots of hard drive space. Cable modem connection with
no proxy.

I temporarily got her around the problem by setting up a shortcut to

http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/defs.download.html

The definitions update perfectly this way but it is too complicated for her
to do this (She is easily overwhelmed).

Has anyone run into this problem? It appears that it is a known issue to
Symantec. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
