Symdaemon takes up 100% when idle-time scan is on

Hi

 

I've been browsing through the forum and can't find an answer to this issue though I've seen it pop up a few years ago with no solution.

 

* Norton Security 5 (v12.6)

 

With idle-time scan, symdaemon takes up 100% or more of CPU.  With it turned off it is at 0.2%.  

 

Is there a fix for this ?

 

Best
