    I really doubt that Symantec tech support is going to be useful in this
    situation. Unfortunately, the OP hasn't given us any information with
    which we can help him, either. To the OP: what changed before this
    happened? Did you run a virus scan and remove viruses? Did this happen
    immediately after you installed SP2 and rebooted? There are just so
    many things that could cause this - hardware and software. You have to
    give us a bit more to go on.
