You can remove the udpates by deleting the virus definitions inside the definations folder

There should be something showing up in the Windows Event viewer. Please tell us what errors are being generated. What version of SAV are you running?

Where did you get that version? It is over 10 years old and has not been supported for many years. I hope your systems are not running 10 year old Operating Systems. Definitions and updates for SAV 7 no longer exist, you are going to have to upgrade to a new product to protect your systems

Symantec offers two great products with AV. Depending on your business needs, you should look into SEP12 for small business and SEP11 for larger networks.

hi,

thank you for your comments. but when I tried to install sep 12 on my pentiumIII with 256 MB Ram and 500 MHZcpu , it asked me for at least 1 GB of Ram and ... so it didn't work for me. can you give me advise for an antivirus for PentiumII and pentiumIII with 256 MB of Ram and 500 MHZ cpu.

You really should consider upgrading your hardware. SEP is not going to run on this system.

1-GHz Intel Pentium III processor or compatible architecture minimum (32-bit) (Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent recommended)
