Does this thing happen in SAFE Mode? and does Norton run corrctly in safe mode?
Download NTREGOPT tool and run it, to optimize the NT Registry.

MessengerPlus contains some Spywares, but this may not be the problem! Just saw your signature and asked it!

okk ok i did that all... but nothing... i reinstalled and updated norton ... and it worked... gosh first it was saying that some components have corrupted... but now its fine... but i still doubt that error message... i use registry mechanic 4..... after all the searching and fixing the error message is still right there...
