I have recently upgraded to Norton Internet Security 2005 (NIS05) from 2003
and have experienced nothing but problems.

I am using Outlook Express 6 as email client and trying to disable email
scanning for outgoing email from Norton, as I find this is very unreliable -
once email is sent it is immediately removed from the Outbox and if
connection is lost to internet during transmission it is not always clear if
email has been successfully sent. I have tried disabling Norton Antivirus
and Internet Security.... as well as switching off Scanning Incoming /
Outgoing email. Despite this, when I send email Symantic Email Scanning is
always invoked!

Anyone have any suggestions??? I have to say upgrading to NIS 2005 has so
far been a bad move - problematic installation and other problems!

Hi - I'm not sure how you disable this, sorry. I'm not a huge fan of Norton
nowadays - it's huge, bloated, and slow. You might want to check with
Symantec support pages for help, or try posting this in an Outlook Express
newsgroup - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own newsgroups.
