| | Add Network Location. IE x86 and IE x64. Settings in Guest account. Hello! 1. Windows Vista x64 shows an error message "Add Network Location The folder you entered does not appear to be valid. Please choose another." after clicking Next in "Specify the location of your website Type the address of the website, FTP site, or network location that this shortcut will open" window. The folder is http://files.akado.ru/slide/files/51796441/home/ I can add the Network Location in Windows XP by doing the same. Norton Internet Security 2008 is installed. The account is administrative. 2. IE x86 crashes during opening a page when IE x64 is open. 3. Windows does not allow to turn on the language bar and input a switch language keyboard shortcut in Guest account: it turns language bar and shortcut off after clicking "Apply". Sincerely, Dima |

| | Re: Add Network Location. IE x86 and IE x64. Settings in Guest account. Norton is likely causing your problem. Replace Norton with the free AVG http://free.grisoft.com/ or Avast http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html, and Windows Firewall and Windows Defender. Disabling Norton is not enough. You need to completely uninstall it. If it doesn't solve the problem, get rid of Norton anyway. Norton is known to cause many problems which don’t always appear immediately. Download and run the Norton Removal Tool. http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT...05033108162039 It's called "360" because Symantec's goal is complete ownership of your computer, and with even less communication about what it's trying to do or ways to configure it than ever before (which would only interfere with its goal.) That, along with Symantec's famous technical support, makes Norton 360 a disaster that I would only install on Granny's computer if she was going to disinherit me. ------- *Report back, please* "Dima" <kopn@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:eL5mN37lIHA.1164@xxxxxx Quote: > Hello! > 1.

| | Re: Add Network Location. IE x86 and IE x64. Settings in Guest account. How can Norton Internet Security 2008 cause the problems with a guest account in Windows Vista x64? If Norton Internet Security 2008 does not cause the problems on Windows XP Pro then it's likely that it does not cause the problems on Windows Vista x64 too, then it's Windows Vista x64 can't work with other programs well.
