Any computer geniuses out there? I need help! My computer is Windows Vista, my security is Norton 360. My LiveUpdate keeps saying, "LiveUpdate failed: Could not connect to the LiveUpdate server" (no error numbers, just the message). The automatic update feature is set to ON. Security is ON and says I'm protected, everything is up to date, no viruses or spyware detected.

This is why I don't use any computer running a Microsoft operating system. And many computer experts will agree.
I have heard that Vista is nothing but problems. I would call Microsoft directly over and over again until they can get it resolved.

Hi,
I have had the same problem. I also was getting a lot of messages telling me my programs quit working and will be notified if a solution was available. I ended up completely uninstalling Norton anti-virus and using Avast anti-virus. When I quit using Norton and uninstalled McAffe Site safe program all my problems went away. I hope this helps.

Vista does this a lot! Ask your carrier to do a remote repair.
If you have ie they can do a remote repair.
If the ideas above don't work, access dearwebby.com on the Internet. After reading the newsletter (published free every day!) and enjoying the contents, write him with your question. Good idea to subscribe, aside from the help. If he can't answer your question, no one can.
If you are using AOL I know what your problem is. AOL knocks you off the Internet constantly which you don't realize until you try to download or go to an interavtive page. In order to led the Norton download work you have to redial in to the Internet so the live connection is on again, otherwise Norton can't connect. I just got rid of it too and installed the AVG free antivirus, what a huge improvement! No connection problems at all, it works behind the scenes while I'm online working. AOL icon in the lower right corner on task bar, will have a X through it is it isn't connected live. :>) Jill
I also have had problems in the past with Norton and Windows. They just aren't really compatible. I solved my problem by turning off all of the Windows Security options, even the firewall if you have a firewall through Norton.
The informations in this page is very helpful and valuable to me and it helped me in resolving my issue. Good job. Keep working. All the best.
