More SP2 grief

After doing what appeared to be a pretty easy update, I
find that my Norton AntiVirus update doesn't work right.
It does okay on most of the updates, but when it hits the
common client it pukes and says the install path couldn't
be found. Is this something I can fix? Or ashould I
consider just getting rid of SP2 altogether. From the
looks of things it appears we have another XP update
problem.

had the same hassle but found that the update version of
nortons needed updating. Went to Symantec site and
clicked the option to check installed products, viola..
it updated the live update and then everything worked ok

Hi there, I would go back to the symantec page and then
go to the download link and search for any program
updates for your program - sometimes the updates are not
available through Live update.

Sorry, I thought everyone was talking about Nortons -
Visit MacAfee's for the latest updates for your product.
They may have released a patch for compatibility for SP2.
