I use norton sys. works pro 2003 to monitor downloads
from the web. I was downloading a program and in the
middle of it I was'nt sure about it and cancelled it.
After that I stopped norton from logging. Then I decided
to go ahead and download the program anyway and norton
logged it. When I took a look at the log I noticed that
the program was downloaded twice, files and all! I did't
think the first time logging went through because I
cancelled it as it was downloading. But norton did log
it. Now I have 2 of the same program. I thought that if
you download anything and aready have it that you would
get an overwrite message from windows or, atleast get a
notice that you already have it. Is it just windows xp
home that recognizes duplicates but not norton? And could
it be that only norton has 2 of the same program and
windows only has 1? Also, is there a fix for duplications
that I can download and use? Thanks if anyone can help!

Jeanie,welcome to the club. Download JV16 Power Tools and
start from there. It might keep you going long enough to
find an answer. In the last 2 weeks my files have gone
from 70000 to 2 mil. and now have grown 25% in 1 day to
2.5 mil; even did destructive recovery to no avail. The
JV16 will choke if you don't first clear all temps.run
Scandisk,Defrag. If you find solution first,let me
know,PLEASE. And,your problem is not with Norton.
