NVP keeps getting disabled

i use norton antivirus on two of our machines. both have service pack 2 installed also,so we have that security feature which tells us when virus definations are old or protection is turned off.

well,my machine has been getting the virus protection turned off about twice a week.i just sat down and SP2 told me the protection was switched off again. i use spywareblaster and spyguard,adaware and spybot. could it be something else other than spyware doing this??

thanks,eh??

try www.moosoft.com for a free trial of the cleaner anti trojan. it may pick up on something norton has missed.
