Well, well, well. I would call that a major flaw of Norton "security"
then. In Taiwan, we often had internet problems, and had the system
locked up every time, it would have seriously interrupted our
business. Having no email for 2 hours is relatively harmless in our
business, but no computer would have ground our work to a standstill.

Thanks, I didn't know that programs with this problem are used.
