System Configuration
See the following sections for system configuration information.
Installing Norton AntiVirus
During the installation of Norton AntiVirus™ software, the program prompts you to run “Live
Update” when the installation completes. Deselect the Live Update box before the installation
completes. If you leave the Live Update box checked and Live Update runs, the Norton
AntiVirus software does not function. This condition also prevents you from uninstalling the
program.
Remove the check from the Live Update box when you install the
Norton AntiVirus software. Leaving the Live Update box checked during the installation of Norton
AntiVirus software prevents the functioning of the program.
You can run the Live Update option after you reboot the system the first time. The system
prompts you to run Live Update when you launch Norton AntiVirus for the first time.
Configuring the System for Microsoft Internet Explorer
TCP/IP must be enabled before you can use Microsoft Internet Explorer. See the following
sections to enable TCP/IP.
Note
On systems with Windows 98, the second boot of the system automatically installs
TCP/IP. For systems with Windows NT or Windows 2000, see the appropriate section that
follows for your operating system.
Changing Network Settings on Systems with Windows NT
All systems are configured with the NetBEUI and NWLink protocols enabled. However, before
you connect a system to your network you might need to:
enable a different network protocol
disable unneeded protocols for enhanced system performance
add or change network, domain, and gateway information.
The following procedure describes how to disable the NetBEUI and NWLink protocols, enable
TCP/IP, and provide network, domain, and gateway information. (If a different protocol is
