Have
you installed Service Pack 3 for XP only to have registry corruption render
your PC inoperable? Symantec finally released the
tool that cleans up the registry corruption that occurs when a user attempts
to install SP3 while SymProtect, Symantec's hacking protection module, is
active. Symantec has also issued a patch via its LiveUpdate service that
prevents the registry corruption from occurring, although users must run
LiveUpdate from within their security software, then reboot the PC before
attempting an upgrade to Windows XP SP3 or Vista SP1.
