Perform this method only if you cannot update your Norton AntiVirus software through the Live Update Web site.Important These steps may increase your security risk. These steps may also make the computer or the network more vulnerable to attack by malicious users or by malicious software such as viruses. We recommend the process that this article describes to enable programs to operate as they are designed to or to implement specific program capabilities. Before you make these changes, we recommend that you evaluate the risks that are associated with implementing this process in your particular environment. If you decide to implement this process, take any appropriate additional steps to help protect the system. We recommend that you use this process only if you really require this process.Note An antivirus program is designed to protect your computer from viruses. You must not download or open files from sources that you do not trust, visit Web sites that you do not trust, or open e-mail attachments when your antivirus program is disabled.For more information about computer viruses, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

regsvr32 /u "c:\program files\norton systemworks\norton antivirus\officeav.dll"c is a placeholder for the drive where SystemWorks is installed. If the command is successful, you receive the following message:

Utility suites may be less well-known, less visible and less understood than theNorton Internet Security 2004 (Symantec) A year has passed, and so another version of Symantec's Norton Internet Security has been released to protect users from viruses, hackers and privacy threats. Norton Internet Security includes Norton Antivirus, Norton Personal Firewall, Norton Privacy Control, Norton AntiSpam (formerly called Norton Spam Alert) and Norton Parental Control in the Personal Version (or Norton Productivity Control in the Professional Version).Some new features have been added to the Norton Internet Security components:*Norton AntiVirus Expanded threat detection alerts users to certain nonvirus threats such as spyware and keystroke logging programs.* Norton Personal Firewall A Web assistant lets users block ads and access other program options from Microsoft Internet Explorer, while a Network Detector lets usersdefine firewall settings for different networks.* Norton AntiSpam Filters unwanted e-mail messages in any POP3-compliant e-mail program by adding a "spam" tag in the Subject field integration with Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, and Eudora for instant, automatic filtering of junk mail. It works with Outlook to filter junk e-mail from Hotmail and MSN Mail accounts.More details on these and other features can be found in a 220-page paper or electronic PDF manual. For example, Product Activation1 is described as "a technology that protects users from pirated or counterfeit software by limiting use of a product to those users who have acquired the product legitimately. Product activation requires a unique product key for each installation of a product. You must activate the product within 15 days of installing it." Users of WinXP will recognize this requirement.Just in case you are curious: If the program is uninstalled, then reinstalled, users do not have to rekey the product key, and if a user uninstalls for installation on another computer, then there should be no problems. If there are any issues regarding a reinstallation, technical support could be called, likely on a "fee-waived" basis. My impression is that Symantec does not want to make activation an onerous task, while at the same time, it's reminding users of the need to properly acquire/use their software.Norton SystemWorks 2004 (Symantec) Norton SystemWorks 2004 includes Norton AntiVirus, Norton Utilities (to maintain and repair systems), Norton Password Manager (to securely manage Windows and Internet passwords), Norton GoBack Personal Edition (this reminds me of the System Restore feature of WinXP) and Norton CleanSweep (to track and remove programs, with the Pro version also including Norton Ghost for hard disk cloning for back-up/restore purposes).

The integrated nature of NSW is particularly appealing, and it comes with a 300-plus-page paper or electronic manual.There are also stand-alone versions of Norton AntiVirus and AntiSpam. Recently, Symantec acquired PowerQuest of PartitionMagic and Drive Image fame. It will be interesting to see what happens with Drive Image vs. Norton Ghost, as they are similar products. Earlier acquisitions by Symantec such as Norton, Central Point Software (PC Tools) and QuarterDeck have seen some product integration, such as CleanSweep into Norton SystemWorks.System Mechanic 4 (iolo technologies) iolo technologies recently released a new version of its integrated system utility, System Mechanic 4. It includes Internet-related tools such as protection against spyware and malware, a clutter cleaner, network speed booster, pop-up ad and browser history eliminator as well as tools designed for one's computer system.System tools include a disk and memory defragger, Windows start-up manager, a tool to clean up error-producing and duplicate files and drivers, and a system maintenance scheduler. It also includes utilities to customize hidden Windows settings, find and fix broken Windows shortcuts, search and remove invalid uninstallers, and securely delete sensitive files, documents, etc.System Mechanic 4 offers Panda3 Anti-Virus protection from viruses, worms and Trojans as well as providing integrated e-mail protection and a secure Internet firewall. The Search and Recover feature helps recover deleted files and folders, deleted or lost e-mail, and deleted photos and music. Also, it can help those using hard drives, CDs and DVDs to store back-ups; automatic/unattended data protection can be scheduled.A couple of other potentially useful features are found in System Mechanic 4: System Shield Pro is designed to remove sensitive information, while DriveScrubber Pro can wipe data from any hard or floppy drives if necessary after a virus attack or system corruption, or before donating, selling or giving away drives.SystemSuite 5 (V Communications)There are a number of new/enhanced features in VCOM's SystemSuite 5, including VirusScanner Pro from Trend Micro (updated engine) to keep systems from being infected by viruses, etc., while NetDefense personal firewall from Sygate (another good name) protects systems from hackers/intruders. PCDiagnostics now covers USB, Firewire, DVD drives and network cards with improved analysis under WinXP.I've found RegistryFixer to be good and it now has a "Protect Keys" option that allow users to flag special issues to be ignored on future uses of RegistryFixer.The Rescue CD, a part of the Installation CD (or make your own, if you've downloaded SystemSuite), is a self-booting utility that can help solve system problems, while a 52-page PDF Emergency Response Manual is improved and updated for WinXP. The Recovery Commander can be used to restore critical components back to a known working time, and data can be transferred to a CD-R or USB drive without depending on Windows.Two other new features from third-party vendors are intriguing: GhostSurf4 provides anonymous Web surfing, while MailWasher Anti-Spam offers an antispam system to automatically remove and bounce junk mail back to the sender.SystemSuite 5 sports some other changes:* MediaVerifier and MediaScan for virus scans expand FloppyVerifier and FloppyScan to include other removable media.* SMARTDefender now is called SMARTCheck and offers the same functionality.* Crashproof has been removed, since Win95 no longer is supported.* PowerDesk Pro 4, which was not WinXP-compatible, has been replaced with one of my favorite file managers, PowerDesk 5.PentaSuite 7 (PentaWare) A recent discovery, PentaSuite, offers some of the same functionality as the other suites plus some new and different features that may make your computer life easier.At the heart of PentaWare is the nicely designed PentaWare Manager which gives access to the various programs in the suite as well as access to Advanced Options, the Help Files, and to the PentaWare Web site. While users can use the programs without the Manager, it does provide a convenient way for users to: manage compressed (zipped) files/archives, view and edit files, encrypted (protect) files, copy files to a CD or DVD, create photo albums in HTML or PDF format, convert files from one format to another, and e-mail files. A new product under the Tools section of the Manager is called PentaRename for bulk renaming of files.PentaZip 7 is, apparently, the core product on which PentaSuite is built and can be purchased separately. Version 5.1 received an Editor's Choice award from ZDNet -zdnet.com.com/PentaZip_5_1/4505-3513_16-9973536.html?tag=pdtl-list It can be used to manage compressed files/archives by creating new ones, modifying existing ones, extracting files or just viewing them; and, although the program refers to the most common form of compressing or "zipping" files, it can handle many other forms including ARC, ARJ, LHA, LZH, RAR, and Zoo which some readers may recall from the days of DOS computing. PentaZip also offers ZGB (ZipGigaByte) and ZIP64 compression which allows users to create/extract archives larger than 4GB as well as compressing single files that are larger than 2GB.PentaZip includes a Shell (menu options) when a user "right button mouse clicks" on a file while PentaSFX is used to create self-extracting files. Such files can be useful or problematic if they are e-mailed to a colleague: useful if the recipient doesn't have a program to uncompress the file, while problematic if the recipient's Internet Service Provider (ISP) deletes all files with an *.exe extension assuming they are viruses. Other PentaZip features include Scripts and a Scheduler which provides unattended running of scripts, batch files, and other programs including recurring events.PentaPGP is the interface for PGP encryption with other settings (AES, Blowfish, Serpent, TDES, DES, Mars with Hash - Sha and Haval and 160 512 bit encryption) found in the Advanced Options section. The PentaSend Wizard helps users encrypt files using PGP, upload, e-mail or save to a hard drive, CD, or DVD. Users can also use the simple encryption/decryption found in PentaZip.PentaBrowser works something like Windows Explorer and my longtime favorite file manager, PowerDesk. PentaBrowser has a number of associated tools including PentaView, PentaConverter, PentaCollector, PentaHTML, and Copy Files to a CD or DVD. Here is a brief description of these tools:* PentaView - can reportedly show/examine files in more than 120 different formats.* PentaConverter - converts files from one format to another.* PentaCollector - select files for a CD/DVD, compressing, e-mail, and so on.* PentaHTML - create photo albums for web posting, CD burning or e-mailing, plus a number of new features have just been added including a preview of the Photo Album inside the Program, better management of templates, and editing by using installed HTML editors.* PentaFTP - upload/download files from sites using File Transfer Protocol; and* PentaDVD - make CD/DVDs (including from the command line with strong encryption) which is useful for batch-file backing-up data.Law firms should find PentaDVD useful for backups, data salvaging, digital photography storage and viewing in court as well as other presentations. Multi-volume compressed archives can be stored on a CD, DVD or the hard drive, and large files can be split across multiple CD/DVDs. "It supports all major optical media formats currently available (CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-RW, DVD+RW) and works with all recent standard models of CD and DVD burners. It even supports numerous anti-buffer under-run/overrun methods including 'burn proof'."Final ThoughtsWhen you look at Norton SystemWorks and Norton Internet Security, you will notice some duplication in that Norton AntiVirus is found in both products. My choice, assuming that only one is possible, would be Norton Internet Security, given that the components in Norton Utilities haven't changed (much) in the last couple of versions, so you already may have something useful on your system. Ideally, one is using either Windows 2000 or Windows XP, given their considerable stability.While Internet security is now more of an issue from Net-borne viruses as well as hacker attacks thus my leaning toward Norton Internet Security over Norton SystemWorks today, one can have system utilities, antivirus protection and an Internet firewall in a single suite such as System Mechanic 4 or SystemSuite 5.So here's the dilemma: Both SM4 and SS5 seem quite good and equal in most ways, although one may, at first glance, seem to have a few more functions mentioned in its main menu . . . which could be more of a function of how things are organized. Now, if Norton combined SystemWorks with Norton Internet Security, then it really would be a coin toss. User satisfaction, in my view, probably would be high with any choice. However, if you need a set of utilities designed for very specific functions, then have a look at PentaSuite. These are not general service utilities such as those which are primarily designed for trouble-free computing; rather, these nicely integrated utilities are designed for managing archived (zipped) files, encryption, file viewing, DVD/CD creation, and FTP transfers. Overall I like what the PentaSuite offers, especially its support for many different types of archive, encryption, and file formats. There is support for format conversion as well as integration with one's antivirus program. When I tested the speed/compression of PentaZip, I found it fast and offering good compression. I used PentaViewer, as well as a couple of other viewers, to successfully look at a variety of files; unfortunately none could handle a Canon photo file with a *.PSF extension although PentaBrowser and PentaView can handle Canon Raw Format (CRW) as well as a number of other digital photography files. It is likely more formats will be supported given PentaWare's openness to suggestions and ongoing program development.What is a user to do?Here is what I'd suggest: Stay with what you have, assuming you have one of these three general service utility suites unless you are unhappy. However, if you don't have one of these suites or if you are unhappy, then download an evaluation copy (if one is available) and give it a test run. At the time of writing this article, iolo was offering a 30-day free trial of SM4 and SM4 Pro, while VCOM seems not to offer a trial version (but does offer a 30-day money-back guarantee), and Symantec offers a 30-day trial on Norton Internet Security but not on Norton SystemWorks. PentaWare offers a fully functional 30 day demo.For more information, visit Symantec at , iolo technologies at , V Communications at -com.com, and PentaWare at Portions of this article have appeared in The Lawyer's PC newsletter, which is published in the United States by Thomson-West -west.com. 2b1af7f3a8
