I'm running NIS 2010 (got it cheap). I installed on March 5, 2012. It was running perfect until mid April. Then I got the infamous 3047,53 error.
My Norton account allowed me to upgrade to resolve the issue. The download was installed and it knocked out IE 8. I could not get back into the internet!!
I booted my XP SP3, using a recover point. However Norton was then gone. No longer on my PC.
I reinstalled NIS 2010 --- However it didn't take and flashed a upgrade screen.
Since I couldn't get NIS up on my PC, I re-installed the XP operating system from scratch. All software was installed nicely except NIS. --- When I installed NIS it clobbered IE 8
Anybody else experience this??? Any suggestions. As a stop gap measure I'm using a competitor Internet Suite, but would prefer to use Norton product.
