OT: NAV and Eudora

R

Robert Baer

Guest
I put together a computer with Win2K, Netscape 7.2, Norton AV and
Eudora 6.2 .
NAV indicates that e-mail is configured and protected.
But in Eudora, it is not possible to get e-mails unless i
re-configure Eudora to totally bypass NAV.
I have tried variants of user name. POP "name", etc to no avail; only
the plain not-NAV-related addresses work.

I have a similar problem with NAV on another system, where it is not
possible to get it to work with NS 7.2 e-mail.

Is this a known problem with NAV?
Is there a fix (at least for the first problem)?

Wrong question, is there anything *right* with Norton Anti Virus.

Oh bull puckey! Eudora has become so bloated and f..ked-up that it
ranks right up there with OrCAD.

I'm running Eudora Pro v3.0.5 (ancient) just ducky with NAV2005.

Check out alt.windows98 for what many people are saying about NAV. I

Actually that reminds me, "N" is running 4.3.2 with NAV2005.

I recently bought the NAV2005 "3-pack". Only problem I had, before I
realized what was happening, was that the old version was slowing
installation down by scanning the new installation for viruses ;-)

Seems to me that NAV should be smart enough to disable the preceding
version.

98?? There's your problem. I'm running Win2K, Firefox v1.04 for

I need to run a lot of DOS programs. I wrote most of them. I'm just
not sure if they will survive more recent versions of Windoze.

I have a _few_ DOS programs... they seem to work OK under Win2K. But,
AIUI, WinXP takes all control away from you to do such things... not
even allowing parallel port use for anything other than printing.

I suppose that WinXP is not going to like things like direct access to
com ports, writing and reading to screen memory, 'borrowing' interrupt
vectors, shutting down the real time clock, and occasionally disabling
the hardware memory refresh??? ;}

Since all the major AV products were bought by big corporates they've gone
steadily downhill. I've heard of both MacAfee and NAV causing various
problems.

Try AVG - it's free for personal use. It works too.

2600) and I've never had any trouble getting or sending e-mails.

NAV does check the e-mails as they come in and as they go out, and that
can take a few seconds with long attachments, and some incoming
attachments get wiped because they contain viruses, but that is it.

Are you sure that your computer is virus-free?

The other partition of the computer is running SuSE Linux 9.3

still can't get it recognise my Alcatel Speedtouch USB ADSL modem, I
don't use it much.

Looks like the combo works under WinXP but not Win98. My combo of
Mozilla/Email and AntiVir seems to work well on Win98. However, I
seldom use my native account for email. Yahoo scans for viruses.
Better them than me.

NAV screwed up so many things on my system, that I just blew off the $60
I paid for it and went back to AntiVir. As far as I'm concerned, if
Norton cant make it work right on Win98, they should not sell it for
that OS.

Are you fully upgraded on your Win98? The only copy of Win98 I ever
had contact with was on my wife's machine and it was a dog. I did
every upgrade in the book before it became even reasonably stable.

My OS history started at DOS -> WFW 3.11 -> WinNT 3.51 -> WinNT 4.0 ->
Win2K

I never did Win98 and, judging from the wife's machine, I'm so glad
;-)

My system is quite stable other than NAV. There were a few other
programs that worked a bit poorly, but didn't disable the computer.

I bought a full-install Win98 disc some time ago ($200). The upgrades
on the Micro$oft site have been known to actually make problems or just
slow up the computer.

That's my recollection as well, but it still had quirks. Last summer

The one i have does not "see" the file for "liveupdate" to work.
Click to expand...
I had contacted Symantec for a solution, and had to write 5 times,as
they consistently gave bad info (usually instructions that were
impossible to follow).
The last time i gave them hell and they said "well, take it back for
a refund".
Suffice to say that was not an option (at the time), because then i
would have no AV software.
So i kept it and manually download the "intelligent" updater often.
If there ever was a fix, they sure as hell said nothing to me, and i
saw no mention of any fix until now (too many days late, umpteen dollars
short).

The problem mentioned is seen on a brand new computer, fresh out the
gate.
I do not think that running under Win2K or under WinXP makes any
difference.
However, your version of NAV us newer; mine is NAV 2001 ver 7.00.51F .
Perhaps the newer version is smarter?


Sheeeesh! Are you even on subscription for updates? One of the past
versions, can't remember which now, had some severe problems with
other programs... something to do with LiveUpdate. But they issued a
fix within days of it cropping up.

The one i have does not "see" the file for "liveupdate" to work.
I had contacted Symantec for a solution, and had to write 5 times,as
they consistently gave bad info (usually instructions that were
impossible to follow).
The last time i gave them hell and they said "well, take it back for
a refund".
Suffice to say that was not an option (at the time), because then i
would have no AV software.
So i kept it and manually download the "intelligent" updater often.
If there ever was a fix, they sure as hell said nothing to me, and i
saw no mention of any fix until now (too many days late, umpteen dollars
short).

Hmmmmm! I found the fix on their website when I had the problem.
IIRC it was as simple as deleting the original Liveupdate.exe and then
clicking the Liveupdate button in NAV to restore everything.

Are you paying annual subscription? If not, you are SOL.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
