Vista user permisssion problem

[Guest ClayJR]

this is my first ever post, and I am an average user, so please be patient. I

have a problem with NIS2008 and Vista HB. Norton has worked on the problem

and reports it is a windows issue. I have 2 user accounts. One admin and one

standard user. Norton comes up and runs live update for the administrator.

But it will not update for the standard user. i am told this is a permissions

problem. When it tries to update the standard user the admin permisssion

window comes up. and even though I follow all the instructions (enter my

password) it does not allow me to run the live update for the standard user.

This problem did not exist using NIS 2007. I have loaded all the vista

updates as they are available. I loaded this on my other machine running

Vista Premium with no problems at all. I would really appreciate some

guidance.

What password are you entering? It should be the password for the Admin

account....

Only administrators can update security software. If the admin updates

it, it updates the entire computer, even the standard user. Just update

from the admin account. Its nothing to worry about style_emoticons/.
