Norton AntiVirus, Norton 360 recently pushed an update... nothing new.. except this update caused the programs to suddenly and un expectedly shut down with a dialog box crashing whatever you were doing at the time.

It would also shut down the AV protection so not only did you lose your work your also (often unknowingly) not protected.

At first Symentics were sending emails to people who had come to their forums asking for pepoles emails in a public forum

. Stating that eveyones 'fix' was different. Two days later they posted a public link to a hot fix.

Haven seen that much fun since they pushed a patch that was incompatible with Zone alarm cutting off pepoles internet / network connections with an insidious fix of un-installling both and waiting on zone alarm making their software compatible. :rotfl:
