I have Norton Internet Security 2008 and am trying to download and install the Add-on Pack 2.1 to get the parental controls. Whenever I download I get a "setup.exe" file 501KB in size. When I run that file I get the message "Download already complete" even though the add-on pack doesn't show up when I run NIS. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Thanks
Bob

Hi Bob,
It sounds like you may have encountered a problem with the Download Manager. The setup file should be ~22MB.
If you have an English product, try this link. Let me know if you need a different language.

Thanks jgreen. The download worked from that link. The install seems to be going OK as well.
FYI.. the download link I used was reached using the following URL:
http://www.symantec.com/norton/products/overview.j
You have to select Download from that page and the one that follows until you eventually reach
https://webdl.symantec.com/downloadxdm.aspx?SASSER

Hi Bob,
Just confirming - this looks like the Vista download; can you confirm that Vista is your OS on the computer used to download the Add-On Pack? Also, was the link you posted the one that you had problems with?
Thanks,
Matt

It seem to be that the file is not 501 KB but more, can you give me the link to the Netherlands NL file.

Matt:
Sorry I've taken so long to get back to you.
I have Windows XP not Vista.
The link I posted was where I had the original problem.
The pack seems to be performing OK, but I have had several blue-screens in the middle of the night around the time I typically have a Ghost backup and a full virus scan scheduled. I haven't had time to investigate and wouldn't have made a connection between the add-on pack and Ghost.
Please let me know if there's any way to check if the add-on pack is correct and possibly causing the problem.
Also, I'll need a link to the correct download for Windows XP.
Thanks

Hi Bob,
No problem on the delay. The Add-On Pack can be downloaded from here (it will do an OS check and provide you with the XP-specific download path):
http://www.symantec.com/norton/products/overview.j
On the BSOD problem, a crashdump would expedite our ability to isolate the problem. Here's the MS documentation on that procedure:

Drop me a note when you have it and I'll provide you with a secure upload location via Forum PM.
Thanks,
Matt
