NAV 2007: LU1835: Connection to the LiveUpdate server failed

I recently bought a Sony Vaio (new) with pre-installed Windows XP Pro. Also had Norton Internet Security 60 day trial pre-installed.  When I tried to do live update I would get the following error:

"LU1835: Connection to the LiveUpdate server failed"

Since I use Norton Anti-Virus on all my other machines (40 person shop) I decided to uninstall the 60-day trial and install the plain old anti-virus product (NAV 2007).  Same error occurs!  This happens whether I am running LU in Interactive mode or Express mode.  Also, this message occurs after I accept the list of published updates during the download & install portion of the update procedure.  I have already run through the solution on the symantec web site (to no avail).

Any others experience LU1835?  Thanks in advance for the help. . .

Hello a2hIT,

Have you verified the following document from Symantec?
Error: "LU1835: Connection to the LiveUpdate server failed"

LucF: Yes - I have seen that support page from symantec.  The first thing I tried was downloading the latest liveupdate and installing that.  Next, I ran symantec's fix it tool.  This reported that symantec settings were ok.  Still no result!  Finally, I just did away with norton internet security and installed NAV 2007.  Thought a clean install would do the trick but, no - i still get the same error.  Now when I run symantec's fix it tool i get an error saying the utlity needs a browser with active x and java script enabled to run properly.  I verified that both active x and java script are enabled in Internet Options.  I'm ready to reformat -- this is a new machine and I've never really been happy with pre-configured machines anyway. . .

LOL.
Just use Norton Corp edition,
WAYYYYY better than the Retail version that they sell to regular users.

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.
