My husband was making changes to Norton System Works and now when trying to
open most applications we keep getting the alert "This operation has been
cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact
your system admistrator". We can't open anything in Control Panel and don't
even have access to System Restore. Please help as we are going nuts trying
to work this out!
 
He can't remember what he did! For some reason Norton had stopped
automatically updating and kept asking to run live update each time we turned
the lap top on. This annoyed him so he went into Norton System Works and
pulled up the page about security and parental controls etc. He didn't think
that he did anything major but from then on everything was locked up. Thanks
for your suggestions but I think I'm going to have to take it to someone. If
I get it fixed I'll let you know what it was!
