When you installed NAV, you accepted the prompt to make the Norton Security
Center the default, overriding Windows Security Center. To avoid this when
reinstalling, uncheck that option or opt to do a Custom install.

*If NAV is still uninstalled, I would strongly recommend running the Norton
Removal Tool before reinstalling:*

NAV didn't show a prompt to make Norton Security Center the default.

Then reinstall NAV (after running the removal tool) and select a Custom
Install. Otherwise, see http://www.symantec.com/support/index.jsp for
support.

I've tried everything you suggested. And I looked on symantec's website but
they didn't offer a solution.

So I've turned the firewall and automatic updates on manually.

Thanks for all your help
