I have been using Live Update for years without problem. But these new
posts have me concerned...
Is it safer to download the update from the web site?
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/download.html
Or is it time to find a different anti-virus program? I hate to give up on
Norton. It is has always worked fine for me.
I do notice that they are constantly updating more than just virus
definitions. Virus definition updates should cause no harm, but often other
updates are done also, probably software updates. The Live Update doesn't
give much insight into whether these other updates are actually necessary,
and I have been loading all of them.

Yep! On one of my machines I have an icon right next to Norton that
reads "Do NOT use Live Update!!!" - a reminder to others who might use
the machine. :-) I've already lived through the hazards.
