Hi, for several months I have used Norton anti-virus because it came
with the computer, now the license expired and I uninstalled it. I
allways copied from and to a windows xp computer in my network, and now,
since i uninstalled norton, my Vista laptop doesn't allow me to copy
files from the xp computer. But it allows it in certain folders, just
some it gives an error. the error is this one:[image:

another anti-virus?

I do not wish to use norton anymore, i'm using AVG free, but thats not
the point, and it's nothing to do with the file type, i have tried
several different files, this was just an example so you could see what
error is it.
Anyway, today something weird happened, I allways only had my normal
administrator account, and today after i completelly removed norton as
you told me to, another administrator account appeard, one more
"powerfull" than mine, because i can delete mine, but not the new one,
so I guess this is the original administrator account and somehow norton
was blocking it and hiding it.
I had never seen this happen before, so I can only guess that for
security reasons norton hide this account from the computer users, even
from other administrators.
I'll try and see if i can access the files now... I'll post the news as
soon as I found out.

Ok, Norton is fully removed, but the saga continues, if the files are in
a certain directory in the other computer it lets me get them, if they
are in any other folder of that computer (they all have the same share
settings) it gives me that error... For now I've just moved everything I
needed to the folder that I can access, but I don't really think thats
the solution to my problem.
