    Anyone else getting "failed to complete" on the latest x64 definitions? I remember a problem with live update a week or so ago, and I'm wondering if this is just me.

    Plenty of people on the Norton Community forum are experiencing it too.

    I have NIS installed on two machines (vista x64 and win7 x32) but I haven't encountered any problems with updates. Apparently not all norton users are affected by this. I hope norton will sort this out asap.

    Sorry for your problem. I just turned on my computer and having read this again I did a manual update. It took just a few seconds to install the 6 updates.
    Norton 2011 IS updates automatically and several times each day. No problem here.

    Regards,
    Jerry
