Symantec is providing a fix for customers who got error messages after a
patch deployment went awry for some Norton users, the company said on
Tuesday.
The problem started last Wednesday when Symantec deployed patches for
Norton AntiVirus 2009, Norton Internet Security 2009, and Norton 360 v3
via LiveUpdate. Some customers received error messages saying that there
was a problem with the Symantec Service Framework.
The patch, which is supposed to communicate with the hardware to ensure
that it is correctly installed, did not handle the response from the
hardware properly after it was installed, a company spokeswoman said.
