Two Questions
1) was there an updated version of NIS2011 released yesterday (APRIL 3RD)?

2) was there an update that required restart yesterday (April 3) AND another update that re quired restart this morning April 4th?
(I'm in central US)

Hi Calls,

did you notice any versionchange on the about window? 2012 did get an update in the last two weeks, it is possible I think that Symantec could manage to transfer some of those updates to the older versions as well, and this could cause a reboot required message for you.

well after the required restart yesterday, the NIS 2011 version number did change.
But after the required reboot again this morning there was no further change in the version number, even though the update included something that said product update

All Good.  

The first was an update to the product and it should have changed the version to 18.7.1.3.  The second was an update to keep up to firefox.

Hi Calls:

Just to confirm bkennedy's post, my NIS 2011 was updated from v. 18.7.0.13 to to v. 18.7.1.3 and updated Norton extensions for the Firefox browser (presumably for the upcoming FF 12 release) were delivered today.

hey norton how about a update for norton 360 then  so we can have some FF12 toolbar no far if NIS 18.7.1.13 gets it and norton 360 dos not

[bkennedy]

Snowstorm,

FF12 hasn't released yet which means we currently do not "support" FF12.  We do support FF11.  

The update noted in this thread was for firefox 11 to correct a patching issue. It was not for FF12. 

The original poster was just asking about NIS so the version number given was directed at that.  For N360 the update brings you up to 5.2.1.3 and the same FF updatethen applies to it as well, we didn't miss N360.

Hope that helps you understand.

Where is the change log for 18.7.1.3?

[Calls]

thanks.

So if I only have  IE8 as my browser with NIS 2011, my Norton tool bar should be-

 2011.7.63?

Or

2011.7.5.1?
