system restore- vista home

System restore will not restore back to any point I try. I get an error
message, that an error has happened and system restore did not work. Files
have not been changed. There is no error code. Just said; error has happened,
system restore could not restore.

Have a Norton product installed perhaps? If yes, this is a known issue.
