Unable to do Virus Scan
12-14-2011 01:59 AM
I have a MacBook Pro 10.7.2 laptop with the latest Norton Anti Virus program installed. Even after updating the program...when I try to run a scan, I get this message: The scan failed because of a scan engine problem. Run LiveUpdate to get the latest version. Attached is the file SymantecInfo. Please advise what I need to do. I keep updating but it does not fix the problem. Thank you.

Hi,
Exact same situation with software purchased yesterday - same model (Macbook Pro 10.7.2) - any time I attempt a virus scan I get the message 'the scan failed because of a scan engine problem. Run live update to get the latest version'
I have run live update several times (above 15 now) and the only thing I am having trouble downloading is the NAV for Mac 12 Virus Defs. When i try to update this, the status is shown with a red X next to it (tried to upload attachment to show but not successful)
WOuld also be grateful for any assistance.
Cheers!

mflyinshanghai, can you follow the instructions at this link? I'll send a private message with an address where you can send the output file.
