This is good to know, will check it out.  Even with supported versions
of Windows / IE, I have had problems with, and have read many reports
of, people having problems that could only be fixed by uninstalling
Norton 2007 and re-installing.  To be specific, upgrading from Norton
2006, certain Norton processes would take > 90% of CPU after
restarting and practically lock up the computer, had to remove it in
"Safe Mode" then re-install.
