Bundled Norton Internet Security 2005 keeps trying to start Outlook Express!

Post by MadMax350 »

I got a bundled version of Norton Internet Security 2005 with my new Gigabyte mobo. It is pretty nice but after installing it I am reminded why I dislike antivirus programs.

I have dial-up internet and regardless if I am connected or not this dumb Norton keeps trying to load Outlook Express. Task manager says the file loading outlook is ccApp.exe or something like that. I tried disabling Norton protection (so it wouldn't automatically load at startup) thru the Norton software itself but it keeps trying to start outlook. How do I correct this problem?

Throw NIS in the trash and buy Symantec AV.
