Re: IE7 has stopped working

Oh, jeez, another one where Norton screwed the pooch! IMHO, all NIS 2008
components should have been disabled prior to installing
SP1.

At this point, I'd strongly recommend that you avail yourself of your free
support options:

Unlimited installation and compatibility support for Vista SP1 is available
at no charge through 18 Mar-09

"...screwed the pooch..." - is that a Pennsylvania expression? Here is
