Happened to me today after a boot, I wonder if there's a way to not have to reboot to fix this issue, the bottom icons don't make it up to the interface, I guess you just let Microsoft send the error report and reboot and be done with it, Oh Well!Best.....Gorpy1

Symantec Framework has crashed twice in the last 3 days. I don't even know what the error code is anymore! The bottom icons (this time the words made it ) but not the icons. Twice since the Firefox update. I don't have Firefox. I ran a full sysyem scan it removed tracking cookies, I cleared my IE8 browser (I have XP SP3) and It Symantec crashes, Then it won't load untill I reboot, Why so delicate these days...........Gorpy1

The only thing I can say is that it could be an issue with the updated firefox/chrome version.  The problem with mozilla and google trying to see who can get to version 100 the fastest they themselves could be creating problems that we are only now seeing.  Instead of raising and nuturing a version, they rush new features and code in and out the door before some have even finishing learning how the previous version works.  That sadly isn't Symantec/Norton fault (see I can be fair).  Google and Mozilla need to slow down and take time on each version, there is nothing wrong with .1, .112, .250 after the version number.

I am using Norton Internet Security 2012 and I solved an issue where NIS crashed with this error message after trying to configure Program Control in Smart firewall.

I started to get this error message for the last few weeks after I needed to manually change firewall rule for a certain program. After searching for days on the forums (here and on all forums that I could find) I decided to take a "drastic" measure.

I choose to Reset the firewall (Settings -> Network -> Smart Firewall -> Advanced settings -> Configure. Then click on Firewall Reset -> Reset. Then click OK, OK).

After this when I open Program Control -> Configure, there is no more "Symantec Framework Crashes Error" and I can add, change, remove program rules without an issue.

I hope that this helps.

Nis 2012  19.7.1.5 not loading properly (icons do not show up only words) then crashing with Microsoft wanting to report it. A reboot seems to fix it................Why ..........Gorpy1

I've got this problem too. thanks for the instructions Andromeda555.

Norton: get this fixed. Since Andromeda's fix works, I can only imagine that you're either not handling large numbers of entries well, or not handling a large number of collisions well. I reinstalled to fix this once previously, and it's happening again now. Really annoying, and doesn't speak well for your developers.
