So when is the auto-protect issue going to be fixed?

I know there are multiple threads on this. But maybe it will take more before Norton will fix it! I mean it is over a week for me and longer for others. And it all started with the upgrade to NIS 22.7.0.76.

I haven't been able to use my laptop in over a week, keep thinking that I will be fixed.

 

So does the "auto-protect not working" message truly mean its not working?

Please guys, I like Norton and don't really want to change. But I also like my computer and don't really want to pay for NON-protection.
