Norton AntiSpam is driving me mad

I recently purchased a PC which has a year's subscription to Norton Internet Security / Norton Antivirus 2004 included. All seems to work ok, although I was perfectly happy with the free products I used on my old PC. One problem that is very annoying is that, although I have disabled the Norton AntiSpam element of this package, it still keeps wanting to configure Outlook Express every time I open OE. Is there any way I can get it to stop doing this? (OE6, WinXP Home SP2)



I'm otherwise very happy with NIS/NAV.



Your help appreciated.

If it came pre-installed, no. If you got the media, yes, you can choose not to install Norton Antispam at all (which is different from disabling it).

Ah, thanks Art. Sadly, it came pre-installed. Annoying that I can disable it but it still wants to have some control over OE.

Exactly where do you find that option in NIS/NAV *2004*?

I have NIS 2005 and it's an option. Somewhere there must be an option for your e-mail browser. Jeff

No, there mustn't. Don't make assumptions like that when answering -- if you don't know the program well enough to make a correct answer, don't.

Aw, shucks, and I got all excited there for a moment, but I certainly can't find this option in NIS 2004 !
