XP Doesn't have a built in virus scanner to have conflicts with. However, if
you purchased a new computer with XP pre-installed it may be that the
computer supplier included a virus scanner in the package you have.
If Norton AV isn't working then you might want to speak to Symantec as its
their software; if they can't tell you why their software doesn't work then
no one else can.
If you worry that you have a worm or virus already then get a second opinion
from a different virus scanner. You can use a free online one by visiting
