Lat time I had a "paid for" antivirus program I ran into the same problem because of reformatting more than 3 times. I had to contact the vendor and make my argument with them before they "reset" the keys for me. My advice would be to dump Norton and go with MSE (free and a lot smaller footprint). -- rhlhamlet |

You would need to ask Norton if this is possible or not.

If you don't want to get rid of Norton - then you need to contact the actual product manufacturer for support with their product. After doing so - it is entirely possible (some would say likely) you will change your mind about your all uppercase outburst. ;-) Avira AntiVirus (free) or eSet NOD32 (AV only, pay, ~$59 U.S. for two years) combined with Malwarebytes (Free for scanning/cleanup or ~$25 U.S. for lifetime protection) and the built in Windows Firewall would give you less trouble, more protection, easier interfaces, better performance and such - but - it's your dime. ;-) -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html |
