I'm having the same problem with Norton 360 on my Windows Vista Home Premium machine. The home server detects that the built-in spyware protection is not running and issues two alerts: the first one saying that no spyware protection is running, and the second one saying that my network health is critical. After Norton 360 finishes booting, these messages go away, but only after several minutes.
I don't want to completely turn off this monitoring, but I don't want users of this computer to get red flag warnings every time they boot the machine either. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
