  1. Windows 7 Norton and Win 7

    I just completed a successful upgrade from Win Vista HP to Win 7 Ulitimate. It went well but the Win 7 system is telling me that I have no virus etc protection and wants me to turn Norton on. It is on and when I hit the yes button in Win 7 to turn it on it does not do it. Any suggestions? Thanks!
